Summary
When William and Hester Monk agree to investigate the blackmail threatening a London weapons trader, they are unexpectedly drawn into America's violent Civil War. Daniel Alberton had promised arms to the South but faces a moral dilemma when his daughter Merrit, in love with a Union officer, insists he change sides. When he refuses, she disappears. That night, Alberton is murdered, his weapons are stolen, and Merrit's lover is the immediate suspect.
