Description
This gripping work of narrative history uncovers the secret plot to assassinate Abraham Lincoln before his presidency had even begun—and follows the political tensions, covert schemes, and determined investigators surrounding it. Drawing on archival research and vivid historical detail, it reveals how the conspiracy emerged from the nation’s deepening sectional crisis and foreshadowed the violence that would soon engulf the country. The book offers a suspenseful examination of Lincoln’s vulnerability, the forces threatening the Union, and the fragile beginnings of one of America’s most consequential presidencies.
