Following the American Civil War, law and order brakes down in Georgia.
A Union Army deserter rapes and murders your wife before kidnapping your young daughter, intending to raise her into a life of prostitution.
Most of your assets have been stolen or seized. Without funds for travel, how can you hope to find your daughter?
Your previously blessed life has ended – or has it?
Instead of wallowing in misery and self-pity, Confederate Captain Franklin Mosby gathers limited funds, snoops out clues to his daughter's kidnapping, and follows a trail west to San Francisco. Using accurate sketches of his missing child, he searches San Francisco's many boardinghouses without success.
Donald Thorne, his wife's murderer and his daughter's kidnapper, has boarded at one Tommy Chandler's boardinghouse, where he is recruited into a gang of thieves. He often leaves the young child in the care of prostitutes.
Franklin boards into the White Chapel Saloon, a boardinghouse owned by Molly O'Brian Zabel, where he hooks up with her husband, Mike Zabel, a famed state police officer whose wife and daughter have been taken by Mike's old enemy, Grand Duchess Catherine Mikhailovna, who seeks revenge for her brother's death.
Together, Franklin and Mike follow a trail of robberies, child kidnappings, torcher, cannibalism, and murder in order to serve justice.
Justice doesn't come easy. It must be pursued. Evil must be defeated. Peace must be earned… Pursuit is a compelling crime/suspense/thriller inspired by historic events following the American Civil War. If you enjoy authentic characters, accurate depictions of 19th century American life, and pulse pounding suspense, you'll love Thomas Holladay's PURSUIT: The American Way. Get it now! You won't be disappointed.
