The Civil War has turned neighbor against neighborbut for one scientist spy and her philosopher soldier, the battle could bind them together as love war, and racial justice collide in Alyssa Coles buzzworthy, sensual, and revelatory Civil War novel.Named a Best of the Year by Entertainment Weekly * Bookpage * Kirkus * Vulture * Publishers Weekly * Booklist For all of the War Between the States, Marlie Lynch has helped the cause in peace: with coded letters about anti-Rebel uprisings in her Carolina woods, tisanes and poultices for Union prisoners, and silent aid to fleeing slave and Freeman alike. Her formerly enslaved mothers traditions and the name of a white father she never knew have protected heruntil the vicious Confederate Home Guard claims Marlies home for their new base of operations in the guerilla war against Southern resistors of the Rebel cause. Unbeknowst to those under her roof, escaped prisoner Ewan McCall is sheltering in her laboratory. Seemingly a quiet philosopher, Ewan has his own history with the cruel captain of the Home Guard, and a thoughtful but unbending strength Marlie finds irresistible. When the revelation of a stunning family secret places Marlies freedom on the line, she and Ewan have to run for their lives into the hostile Carolina night. Following the path of the Underground Railroad, they find themselves caught up in a vicious battle that could dash their hopes of loveand freedombefore they ever cross state lines.When the revelation of a stunning family secret places Marlies freedom on the line, she and Ewan have to run for their lives into the hostile Carolina night.
