John Morgan, owner of the Eagle Gold Mine, has disappeared! With Fighting Joe Hooker’s spring offensive imminent, the Bureau of Military Information can spare no time looking for a civilian and turn to the McEntee brothers to assist. Although Rob dreams of capturing the impending clash on camera and Andrew brings helping hands for the Union wounded, nothing turns out as planned in Chaos at Chancellorsville. Chaos at Chancellorsville is the fifth in a series of Jean West Civil War mysteries. In Mayhem at Manassas, Robert McEntee’s life in Washington, D.C. is upended by the arrival of his brother, Andrew, a New York Fire Department Zouave followed by the suspicious drowning of a soldier. During Peril on the Peninsula, the McEntee brothers find themselves enmeshed in murder during the clash between the Monitor and Merrimack. As Rob attempts to take historic photographs, Andrew discovers un-natural death stalking the wounded on America’s bloodiest day in Anguish at Antietam. A rock thrown during a brawl between the “Georgetown Boys” and the “Washington City Pigs” draws the McEntees into murder, espionage, and the killing fields on Marye’s Heights in Furor in Fredericksburg. Look for the upcoming Grief and Gettysburg as a battlefield pledge sends Rob and Andrew racing back to riot-torn New York City to avert a murder.
