by Ava Mackinney (Author)
The War Between the States hits southwest Missouri in August, 1861, with all the ugliness and horrors of war in the homeland.
Eliza is consumed by the need to avenge her father's death. Presented with the opportunity to be involved in espionage, she foolishly says yes and is catapulted into a world of lies, play-acting and danger. Lieutenant Jonathan Monroe is furious when he discovers her occupation. Before Eliza's father went to battle, he charged Jonathan with the job of protecting his daughter. It was an easy job to accept, since he'd known and loved little Eliza since she was a baby. Against his better judgement, his feelings for her evolve from his guardian role to one of strong romantic attraction. Will Eliza listen to reason when Jonathan begs her to stop spying? Will she be able to overcome the driving force of her anger and hatred? Anger that also extends toward God. In a pivotal moment she is faced with an unexpected choice. What will her answer be?
