In the snug study of a two hundred forty-year-old manor house on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, two Richmond City homicide detectives and a famous genealogist cordially sip after-dinner scotch. As the fire burns low, the genealogist abruptly turns to his guests and says, “I want you to solve a murder...a murder that occurred over two hundred and thirty years ago.” Thus Jere Ford and his partner Ingrid Fairchild are cast into the most bizarre murder investigation they had ever encountered. Modern techniques would not unravel this mystery. Only through the use of historical documents, ancient archives, and family lore could they travel back in time to grasp the hardships suffered during the American War for Independence and solve the mystery of the disappearance of the beautiful enigmatic Caroline.
