"CLOAK & DAGGER IN THE OLD WEST"" Set among the splendor of the Rocky Mountains in 1880, The Grant Conspiracy takes you to a Colorado mining town being torn apart by an evil law firm out for revenge, not for the War Between the States, but for Black Friday.Frost and Hancock are ex-Confederates who, with the help of their henchmen, are plotting the assassination of former president Ulysses S. Grant. But their hatred comes from pure greed. They lost their fortunes when trying to corner the gold market in 1869, thanks to then President Grant, who dumped government gold on the market.Now, with Grant planning a tour of the Rockies by wagon, they're scheming to lure him to Mountain Springs by inviting Matt Tyler, the man who saved the general's life during the war, to come work for their law firm.However, President Hayes is on to them and he's sending the young lawyer to Colorado on a dangerous mission to scuttle their plan.Greeted by the brutal murder of a law clerk, Matt can immediately smell trouble in the air.With allies such as the beautiful Jennifer White, who has incurred the constant ire of the firm with her blazing newspaper editorials, and a black veteran, Matt sets out to save Grant's life a second time-and bring peace to the fractured town.NOW IN LARGE PRINT WITH THORNDIKE PRESS, IN LIBRARIES AND BOOK STORES
