A Faraday Novel (Book 3)
In one treasonous moment President Abraham Lincoln is dead, and - though his assassin, John Wilkes Booth, is quickly caught - the treachery is far from over. A plot is being hatched to kidnap Lincoln's body from the train that will carry the fallen leader to his final resting place in Springfield, Illinois. But railroad detective Matthew Faraday has gotten wind of the plot. With the blessings of Secretary of War Edwin Stanton and the aid of his newest agent, Cole Yeager, Faraday is sworn to protect the great man's body from desecration - while ambush, runaway locomotives, and death-dealing renegades wait up ahead.
