Reviews:

"Saturated with swift thunderclap battles…Dietz has a steady hand with pacing (particularly in combat scenes) and a good ear for realistic battle chatter. He keeps the book consistently intense while displaying a knack for fleshing out flawed characters, both military and civilian. He likewise excels at individualizing characters, relationships…and large groups…Strongly recommended.”

The past two days had been spent infiltrating troops into the hills east of Albuquerque, New Mexico. It would have been impossible without the snowstorm. But, thanks to the poor visibility, Union forces had been able to enter the area without being spotted. And one of those soldiers was the President of what had once been the United States of America. However, even though Samuel T. Sloan was commander in chief of all armed forces, Captain Nick Black was in command of Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 2nd Infantry Brigade from Fort Carson, Colorado.
