America’s bloody Civil War is over, leaving a legacy of bitterness, repercussions, intrigues, and many forms of villainy, not all acted out on the American continent. When the last ship of the old Confederacy docks in Liverpool, England, in 1865, the mysterious, humpbacked Mr. Fortune, carrying a burden of secrets, slips ashore and disappears into the fog of winter. And in London, private detective Septimus Dacers finds that helping an American girl in distress plunges him into combat with the Dixie Ghosts, and brings him face-to-face with threatened murder–his own! Can Dacers save the honor of the girl's father, and stop the dastardly scheme to resurrect the Confederate States? A gripping period mystery featuring a dynamic new investigator!
