"The impressive first in a historical series, which effortlessly alternates between Washington, D.C., in 1862 and the same city 95 years later. . . . This debut shows definite promise." —Publishers Weekly

Ben Carey, a Korean War veteran newly promoted to police sergeant, laments the impending end of his marriage while being befuddled by the ghosts who seem to be haunting the dilapidated old building housing his new office. Are they a figment of his normally rational imagination, or an echo of the previous century and a long-buried mystery with roots in the Civil War and doomed love?

As Carey peels back the layers of time, he discovers greed, deception, love, jealousy, and murder.

"An involving, period-perfect story. The action is fast-paced and convincing . . . the characters are expertly drawn." —ForeWord

"Very nicely done. . . . Recommended." —Library Journal

"Horwitz [sets up] the plot nicely with dual narratives, palpable emotions, and believable investigative habits." —Baltimore Sun
