As Sherman moves toward Atlanta, an agent searches for traitors among the troops in this compelling Civil War thriller . . .

When Sherman's army hits a wall of resistance at Kennesaw Mountain in the summer of 1864-despite what seemed to be highly reliable intelligence-he's convinced by one of the Union nurses to call in Maj. Alphonso Clay to hunt for a saboteur. With his scout Ambrose Bierce badly wounded and a general murdered in the midst of battle, he summons Clay, who soon joins him on his march through Georgia.

But as Clay investigates the situation-and tries to prevent any further unwelcome surprises from the Confederates-it becomes apparent that there may be more than one person betraying the Union . . .

"I can't wait to read the next Alphonso Clay book." -RP Dahlke, author of the Dead Red Mysteries
