Fateful unions and war toll reshape Cortlandt family
In a waning romance, Ann Cortlandt faces duty and scandal as she contends with Hendricks Cortlandt’s looming marriage, political duties, and a Civil War crisis that ends in sudden death and a reckoning of loyalty, love, and obligation within the Cortlandt circle. The note from Horace Greeley confirms Hendricks’s death, forcing Ann to confront her future and her guardian’s sorrow.
