Garrett Walker is a warrior. For the last decade and a half he's been continuously at war - combat rotation after combat rotation. He's a veteran of the close fight, and he's taken a great many lives. Yet, all that combat and all those deaths were in the service of his country. Now, that's about to change. Since their college days, Garrett and his identical twin, Brandon, have been estranged. They were both in love with the same woman, and she chose Brandon. So Garrett chose the Navy SEALs.

In a transformed mid-19th-century America dominated by plantation owners and kept in line by Southern military forces, a mild-mannered academic from Maine, Professor Joshua Chamberlain, stands accused of crimes against the nation.

Convicted, Chamberlain is sentenced to 40 years hard labor, while Lincoln's fate is indefinite detention at Fortress Monroe.
