An Unstoppable Foe.

An exciting sequel to The Devil's Path

At the close of the Civil War, Colonel Scott finds himself once again
pitted against a deadly foe, this time in Mexico and the stakes could
not be higher. From Washington D.C., to a Confederate prison in
Richmond, to French occupied Mexico, Alexander Scott is in a race with
a shadowy organization known as The Order, who are determined to find
a treasure that has not been seen for centuries. If they find it
first, it could forever tilt the balance of power in the world. Helped
by Kate O'Sullivan, a brilliant historian, and Thomas, a sailor and
freed slave, Scott faces his greatest challenge to date.
