A haunting historical mystery. Soldiers Rest explores the thin boundaries between illusion and truth, the past and the present. It's 1899 in central Maryland when Tess McPherson marries into the powerful Wakefield family and moves to Soldier's Rest, their historic estate. She's expecting a bright future. Soon she knows that she's surrounded by wealth and cherished traditions – and a deadly secret.Strolling the property, she discovers an abandoned greenhouse. Its transparent walls, worn dim by sunlight and rain, are made of glass-plate negatives salvaged after the Civil War. In the glass panes, Tess can make out the faded, menacing faces of fighting men. Haunted by their images, she probes deeper, determined to learn why their spirits linger at Soldier's Rest. But the Wakefields will stop at nothing to prevent her from uncovering the truth.
