Step into 1863 Memphis, where the occupied city seethes with tensions-and dangerous secrets.
When a Union officer turns up dead in a shadowy alley, Elias Aronson-a sharp-witted Manhattan lawyer serving as aide-de-camp at Fort Pickering-is ordered to uncover the truth. But in a city where lies flow as freely as whiskey, neither Black nor white residents will talk.
Frustrated but determined, Elias teams up with Lydia Owens, an intrepid widow from upstate New York who's come South to teach the newly freed slaves. Together, they navigate Memphis's underbelly of corruption and vice, piecing together clues as their partnership deepens into something more. Caught in a web of deceit and danger, Elias and Lydia must hurry to uncover the truth-before they become the murderer's next targets.
