Summary
In another world, this never would've happened.
A tavern keeper never would've risen so high. A bastard orphan, son of a whore, never would've held so much power. A preacher never would've taken up arms...and invisible ink. A son of South Carolina never would've died how he did.
This is the story of four men whose names history knows all too well: Nathan Hale, Alexander Hamilton, Benjamin Tallmadge, and John Laurens. But, this isn't history as we know it, my dear reader, this is so much more. A tale of murder, spies, intrigue, falling from grace, crime, conspiracy, love, and of course, rebellion.
Come along and read about a very different version of the American Revolution. The world will never be the same, since, after all, this isn't our world.
1774- Benjamin Tallmadge is a new minister freshly arrived at his new post in Albany, a city teaming rebellion and overwhelmed by some very interesting characters.
1777- John Laurens entered Washington's headquarters in order to accept his position as an aide de camp. He finds himself drawn into a complicated web of lies, intrigue, and even murder, all before the new country was even born.
