The Lincoln Myth by Steve Berry September 1861: All is not
as it seems. With these cryptic words a shocking secret
passed down from president to president comes to rest in
the hands of Abraham Lincoln. And as the first bloody
clashes of the Civil War unfold Lincoln alone must decide
how best to use this volatile knowledge: save thousands of
American lives or keep the young nation from being torn
apart forever? The present: In Utah the fabled remains of
Mormon pioneers whose nineteenth-century expedition across
the desert met with a murderous end have been uncovered.
In Washington D.C. the official investigation of an
international entrepreneur an elder in the Mormon church
has sparked a political battle between the White House and
a powerful United States senator. In Denmark a Justice
Department agent missing in action has fallen into the
hands of a dangerous zealot—a man driven by divine visions
to make a prophet’s words reality. And in a matter of a
few short hours Cotton Malone has gone from quietly
selling books at his shop in Denmark to dodging bullets in
a high-speed boat chase. All it takes is a phone call from
his former boss in Washington and suddenly the ex-agent is
racing to rescue an informant carrying critical
intelligence. It’s just the kind of perilous business that
Malone has been trying to leave behind ever since he
retired from the Justice Department. But once he draws
enemy blood Malone is plunged into a deadly conflict—a
constitutional war secretly set in motion more than two
hundred years ago by America’s Founding Fathers. From the
streets of Copenhagen to the catacombs of Salzburg to the
rugged mountains of Utah the grim specter of the Civil War
looms as a dangerous conspiracy gathers power. Malone
risks life liberty and his greatest love in a race for the
truth about Abraham Lincoln—while the fate of the United
States of America hangs in the balance.
