Description
In the summer of 1861, Nathaniel Starbuck—a disgraced young Northerner estranged from his preacher father—finds himself drawn into the Confederate cause. After a theft leaves him abandoned by his lover and facing the fury of a Southern mob, Starbuck is rescued by the influential landowner Washington Faulconer, whose fortunes are tied to the gathering war. As battle lines harden, the unlikely Yankee rebel must navigate shifting loyalties, political intrigue, and the brutal realities of civil conflict. Combining vivid historical detail with brisk pacing and a morally complex hero, this gripping novel explores identity, allegiance, and the price of choosing sides.
