About The Book
British soldier and all-around rogue Simon Pure has led quite an exciting life. Or lives, really.
In this volume, Simon crosses paths with some of America’s greatest figures…and one mystery man who absolutely despises Simon.
In the late 19th century, Simon has his annual meet-up with his good friend John Chapman—aka Johnny Appleseed—and an unexpected calamity awaits them. He also meets the striking and skilled sharpshooter Annie Oakley, who always hits the bullseye…especially the one in Simon’s heart.
And during the most desperate time of America’s Civil War, a mysterious force threatens to turn the tide of key battles by handing the Confederacy an unthinkable victory! Only Simon and the enigmatic new American Myth known as The Northerner stand in their path. But can these two unlikely soldiers put aside their differences long enough to stop a catastrophe?
