Synopsis
In this sixth installment of the Isaac Bell series, our hero detective returns. Bell, a naive young detective in the year 1902 is only couple years out of his apprenticeship at the Van Dorn Detective Agency. But now, he's got bad news for his boss. Though he was supposed to spy on the radical unionist rebels in the coal mines, Bell bears witness to an incident that leads him to believe a much bigger game is afoot, and that there may be a mastermind provoking this whole debacle.
If only Bell understood what he was truly up against. With time running out and under a week to prove he is in the right, Bell quickly realizes his opposition is in a far more powerful position than he could have imagined. And they will stop at nothing to achieve their aims, even if that means knocking a greenback detective out of their path... permanently.
