Jackson Speed and the Blood Tubs
Overview
PART ROGUE. PART SOLDIER. ALL TROUBLE.
History remembers Jackson Speed as a hero.
Jackson Speed remembers things a little differently.
It's 1861. Abraham Lincoln has been elected president. The nation is coming apart. And a sinister Corsican in Baltimore is plotting to assassinate the president-elect.
But the Pinkerton Detective Agency never sleeps, and agents are moving behind the scenes to uncover and foil the Corsican's plot.
Allan Pinkerton needs his best spy to infiltrate the plot. Unfortunately, the man he's chosen for the job is Jackson Speed, a coward, a braggart, a philanderer ... and a man who doesn't care a wit if Abraham Lincoln lives or dies.
With the beautiful Pinkerton Agent Kate Cherry by his side, Ol' Speedy finds himself surrounded by dangerous men, tangled in murderous intrigues, and increasingly desperate to escape before someone discovers he's a spy.
From the shadowy streets of Baltimore to the bloody battlefields of the Civil War, Jackson Speed and the Blood Tubs is a rollicking historical adventure filled with real history, legendary figures, dangerous women, narrow escapes, and wicked humor.
