Spy Jeanne Beaufort in Confederate War Drama
Jeanne Beaufort, a Virginia planter’s daughter, becomes a Confederate spy in 1864 Richmond. She learns telegraphy, hides as a Northern officer’s aide, and navigates a web of marriages, betrayals, and pursuit as she evades capture and seeks answers about Parson Kennedy. The tale centers on espionage, romance, and the war’s ironies. The chapter ends with a hidden Yankee officer in her house and her resolve to face the danger ahead.
