Publisher's summary
In a nation torn apart by war, Hattie Logan is a woman on the run, desperate to escape the shackles of her privileged past.
Seeking refuge from a life of monotony and wealth, Hattie makes a daring choice: to join the ranks of the renowned Pinkerton Detective Agency. Stationed in the heart of the Civil War's fiery epicenter, Washington City, she immerses herself in the dangerous world of intercepting Confederate mail and unraveling intricate ciphers. But deep within, a burning desire lingers—to make an even greater impact.
When an enticing assignment slips through her fingers, Hattie embarks on a perilous mission alongside Thom Welton, a daring courier shuttling messages between the North and the South. Assuming the role of his devoted wife, she boldly ventures into enemy territory, where a risky game of love takes hold in her heart.
Deciphering a coded letter exposing a family secret, Hattie is thrust into a high-stakes confrontation with a cunning double agent. With betrayal lurking in the shadows, Hattie and Thom find themselves squarely in the crosshairs of Confederate forces. In a race against time, Hattie must confront the very past she has been desperately evading—a past that may hold the key to their salvation.
Prepare to be swept away in a captivating tale of courage and resilience, inspired by the extraordinary exploits of historical women spies. This page-turning narrative will transport you into a vivid tapestry of history where determination and daring intertwine to shape the destiny of a remarkable woman.

Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Tess Strebel can’t recognize her own face. She can’t recognize her home. Her bedroom is unfamiliar. And she can’t remember the handsome stranger lying next to her in bed. A stranger who claims he’s her husband. Tess reads a letter in her own handwriting, composed during a rare lucid day, explaining her life as it now exists: she was in a terrible car accident one year ago. Every morning, she wakes up unable to remember most of the last decade. Including her own wedding.

Horrible ending
It seems like there should be more to Hattie's ending. The story ended abruptly on a very sad note. Narration was artificial and lacked emotion.

Narration was the worst .
A waste of my money and time, it was difficult to follow the characters mostly due to the distraction of the narrative

The reading distracts from the story
The quality of the voice was pleasant. But the word emphasis and punctuation seemed off in enough places I found it distracting. I wish I had not spent my money on this reading

The story was great. The AI narration doesn’t always grasp the right phrasing or emotion.

Great story line. It kept my interest the time.
This book gives you a great look into a says life during the Civil War. The only thing that I didn't like was the way it ended. I kept wanting more. Great Book!
