Synopsis:

In this historical novel that completes the trilogy, The Drieborg Chronicles, Michael Drieborg and his family must learn to adjust to post-Civil War conditions after he is discharged from the Army in late 1865 and returns to his life as a farmer.

Michael is no sooner immersed in his old life when enemies of his family murder his wife and stepson in broad daylight on a crowded Saturday in town. Obviously depressed and no longer able to stay in the house that he and his wife built, Michael tells his family he is leaving for Washington to work for Congressman Kellogg. It is only after he departs that the body of convicted criminal Carl Bacon is discovered and the local marshals suspect the only man in town who wants to settle a score with Bacon-Michael Drieborg. Meanwhile Michael is in the midst of the early struggles of Reconstruction as Congressman Kellogg solicits Michael for his respected advice.

Reunited with troopers from his old unit and allied with Congressional Republicans, Michael must deal with Washington intrigue, wartime enemies, fleeting romance, and South Carolina's struggle to recover.

About the Author: Michigan native Michael J. Deeb was an educator for nearly twenty years, teaching American history at both high school and university levels while conducting historical research. After retiring, he and his wife relocated to Sun City, Arizona, where he authored the trilogy, The Drieborg Chronicles.
