ANGEL TRUMPET SIGNED COPY
N.Y.: Viking 1999. 1st ed. Fine in dust jacket. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR. 2nd in this Civil War series. Narcissa Powers a white widowed nurse and Judah Daniel a free black healer as well as many secondary characters introduced in McMillan's debut Civil War mystery Dead March return for a second outing. In Richmond Va. in October 1861 with the war at a temporary lull Col. John Berton returns from the front to find his parents and wife slain and his house slaves in a stupor. The fear of slave rebellions is intense; if Berton's slaves committed the murders it is important not only that they be punished but that word of the slaughter be kept quiet. For not only might the news inspire further uprisings but it could sap the will of the soldiers who have left loved ones behind. Signed by Author. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Fine. Book.
