About the Book
Chaos Reigns Supreme as One Nightmare Ends and Another Begins Before the CIA can grab them off the streets of Boston, Hiram Haynes and the Countess of Castiglione are again plunged back through time. This time it’s to 1863 Vicksburg, Mississippi, as the historic siege is about to begin. They’re arrested as Yankee spies by the Confederates. Among them are the newly formed Knights of the Golden Circle. These secretive Freemasons have discovered fortunes in Templar gold and religious artifacts. Its very existence, and how it got there, rewrites history. And, if the Knights have their way, it will change the future. The South’s new Spanish and English allies, bought with the fantastic treasure, will enable a Southern Caribbean Empire, from Mexico to South America. Confederate battlefield victory will no longer be necessary. Hiram and the Countess know this plan must not succeed. They struggle to preserve history, while freeing themselves from the mysterious power that has thrust them through time and space.
