“Not for nothing has Abbott, the bestselling author of Sin in the Second City, been called a ‘pioneer of sizzle history.’ Here she creates a gripping page-turner that moves at a breathtaking clip through the dramatic events of the Civil War.” – The LA Times

"In the gripping book, Abbott tells the moving and fascinating story of four women who played unconventional roles during the Civil War... a remarkable story of passion, strength, and resilience." - Publishers Weekly

“During the Civil War, women may have officially been relegated to the home front (and denied the vote), but this didn’t stop them from fighting the war on their own terms…. You’ll find adventure and intrigue galore here.” - The Boston Globe
