Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. On a night meant for celebration, a single gunshot shatters the joy at Ford's Theatre-and Washington City slams shut like a steel trap. By dawn, detectives swarm Mary Elizabeth Surratt's quiet H Street boardinghouse, turning breakfast tables into witness stands and parlor whispers into capital evidence. Was Mary the silent hinge on which the conspiracy turned-or simply the most convenient neck to fit a noose? From gas lit streets slick with soot and rumor to a plank-floored military courtroom ringed with bayonets, this gripping historical thriller follows a nation drunk on grief and hungry for vengeance. Testimony shifts like sand. Neighbors avert their eyes. Friends forget the truth at the threshold and swear a different one under oath. Witnesses trade stories for promises, fear, and freedom. As the iron clock over the prison yard scratches forward, each minute becomes a footstep toward the scaffold. Mary's daughter pounds on locked doors, shoves petitions beneath shutters, pleads with men who never remove their gloves. Mercy arrives too late. Justice moves too fast. And the rope waits for no one. Threaded with intercepted letters, sudden arrests, shadowy informants, and testimony bought and broken, this novel plunges into the fevered heart of a city reeling from war and into a courtroom where soldiers keep the time and verdicts are stamped faster than prayers can form. Was Mary Surratt a monster-or a martyr?After Lincoln fell, someone had to hang.The question that haunts every page is why it had to be her-and who wanted it that way. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
