About this listen
October, 1859. The United States reels in the wake of another attempted slave uprising; this time in the sleepy village of Harper’s Ferry, Virginia. With a presidential election looming, long-festering social and political divisions threaten to split the Union in two.
Elsewhere in Virginia, Senator John Roscoe and his family appear to be perfect in every way. But as states secede and the Union unravels, the Roscoe dynasty’s dysfunction is laid bare through the unearthing of old wounds and family secrets.
With the outbreak of civil war, each member of the Roscoe family must now choose sides and carve separate paths through the bloodiest period in American history.
Experience a stirring debut novel that melds intricate historical detail, thrilling action, and raw human emotion.
