Strike at Richmond

"You see, son, that's where you're in error. I'm not bound by military regulations concerning treatment of prisoners."

When FBI Agent Jason Sparks investigates a historian's murder, he uncovers documents from 1859 that could topple a defense empire and threaten a presidential campaign. The investigation draws him into a web of corruption reaching the highest levels of government.

Meanwhile, in 1864, Union Colonel Andrew Brison receives a dangerous assignment from President Lincoln to investigate the same industrial conspiracy.

As the two men pursue the truth across two centuries, they discover that some secrets are worth killing for—and in America, corruption is the only true inheritance.
