Richmond, Virginia - February 9, 1864. Civil War has raged for three years. In just a few short hours, the biggest prison escape in American history will take place, changing Annie’s life forever.
Annie is barely surviving in war-torn Richmond when a letter arrives informing her that the father who abandoned her has been hanged as a spy. His actions may have been responsible for the deaths of thousands of Union soldiers, maybe even her missing brother. Annie wants no part of war, but vows to find her brother, no matter what, until Matthew Cooper, a Union soldier escaped from Libby Prison and near death, collapses at her door. Now her task becomes hiding him and saving his life, pushing her head first into the war and becoming what the newspapers call the “disloyal element” in and around Richmond.
Falling in love was not part of her plan, but neither was embedding herself with the enemy until an old friend of her father appears, a man who can provide the key to finding her brother but with it the key to secrets long hidden that can destroy her. While sacrificing herself may be the only way to learn her brother’s fate and more, is doing what’s right worth the personal cost?
Annie’s choices are heartbreaking. Ignore the war or embrace it and damn the consequences.”
