I was a bit torn when I realized I was about current with this series... one the one hand, I was pretty excited to read this one based on the blurb... I thought surely the dangling plot of Barker's brother would be resolved, and I love me a good Civil War conspiracy.

But, reading this essentially as soon as it is out means next time I'm in the mood for a Barker and Llewelyn novel, I will have to wait, as they are fresh out.

While I was disappointed in the lack of Caleb Barker in the book (he gets a bit of a mention and delivers a letter, but was never 'on camera', there was no shortage of fun Civil War conspiracies!

This was a quick, fun read (as most of the series is) and it perhaps moved the general life and history Mr. Llewelyn forward a bit... maybe. I thought that was the case before when he got married and that was not really the case. Maybe this time. If there is another book, that is, since clearly this is (current) last one. I would hope so though.. while there's no specific cliff hanger going on, I definitely am not done with these two yet!
