Description

Set against the tumultuous backdrop of Lincoln's assassination, Emily Pigbush faces personal turmoil as her mother passes away and her friend's mother is imprisoned for her alleged role in the president's murder. As she navigates this difficult time, Emily discovers that her physician uncle has become involved in a dark and illicit trade.

Ann Rinaldi's gripping novel explores the complexities of family relationships, loyalty, and the struggles of growing up during a time of great upheaval in American history.
