She sees the danger. But can she stop it?
October 1864. Civil War spy Hattie Logan travels to Montreal, where Confederate commissioners are funding a last-ditch campaign to terrorize the North into submission. The trail leads to New York, where Hattie and her actress friend Alice Gray race to stop a plot to burn the city to the ground. It's dangerous work, the kind Hattie has spent four years getting good at.
From there, the trail leads to Washington and to a name Hattie recognizes from Alice's circle of friends: John Wilkes Booth. At first, he's just an actor with strong opinions and a grudge against the president. Then his associates start appearing in the War Department dispatches Hattie is decoding, and what looked like idle talk starts to look like something else entirely.
Hattie warns who she can. She does everything in her power. And yet what happens at Ford's Theatre will stay with her, and the nation, long after the deed is done.
A Fond Hope is the concluding novel in the Secrets of the Blue and Gray series, leading up to the night that forever changed America, perfect for fans of The Spymistress and The Lilac Girls.
