Description
Copperhead is the second book in Bernard Cornwell's series on the American Civil War. Set against the backdrop of the conflict, the story follows a northerner who has defected to the rebel South. Expelled from his former unit, the character must navigate a treacherous world of betrayal and espionage, where loyalty is a luxury he can ill afford. As he travels through the war-torn landscape, he faces the harsh realities of life as a Copperhead, from the brutal prisons of Richmond to the bloody battlefields of Virginia. With no one to trust and the enemy closing in, his survival depends on his ability to stay one step ahead of his pursuers. Cornwell's gripping tale of espionage and betrayal is a gripping portrayal of the complexities of war and the human cost of conflict.
