The Emancipation of Anarchy Aldridge - Conquering Hand, #1 - E-book - ePub

When the only person in the world who can make her smile is sold away, Amity fled Roseacres, the sprawling home the Aldridges built on the backs of the enslaved. She is determined to outrun the catchers, and follow the trail to his side, even across the battlefields of the Civil War. Being hunted unleashes a hidden inner power that could protect Amity, or it could make her an irresistible target, no matter what happens to the union.
She hides in plain sight, disguised as a man, and blends into a regiment of United States Colored Troops on the march to Vicksburg, Mississippi. When the unit makes camp in a seemingly deserted town, Amity crosses paths with a preacher and his devoted flock that believe she is the evil foretold in his visions. Amity never meant to be a soldier or a killer, but her heightened instincts are telling her to use the gifts she inherited from her ancestors, and the only path to her love is bathed in blood.
