A Victorious Union
The Civil War rages at sea in this gripping naval adventure. Christy Passford, first lieutenant aboard the Union vessel Bellevite, is tasked with a dangerous mission: gather intelligence on the elusive blockade-runner Trafalgar and explore the waters around Fort Morgan, where Confederate sympathizers operate in the shadows. With Captain Breaker relying on his courage and wit, Christy must balance the duties of a naval officer with the moral complexities of wartime espionage, where allies and enemies blur beneath the surface. What follows is a tale of high-stakes daring on the open water, where Union determination meets the fierce independence of the Confederacy. Optic captures both the heroism and the human cost of a nation at war with itself. The camaraderie among the Bellevite's crew provides heart amid the tension, while Christy's leadership is tested in every encounter. For readers who appreciate historical adventure that doesn't flinch from the complexities of the Civil War era, this novel delivers action, intrigue, and a nuanced portrait of a divided America fighting for its future.
