More Description Midnight...April 14, 1865.
Abraham Lincoln lays mortally wounded in a small bedroom in a house across the street from Ford's Theatre and Vice President Andrew Johnson lies dead in his suite in the Kirkwood House Hotel.
John Wilkes Booth's plan to decapitate the Executive Branch of the United States has succeeded, and the assassin, along with his conspirators, have disappeared into thin air.
As Lincoln hovers between two worlds, Army General Christopher C. Augur, Provost Marshal James O'Beirne and his Chief Detective, John Lee, desperately seek out clues that will put them on the trail of the killers.
Meanwhile, the man next in line of Presidential succession, Senator La Fayette Foster, waits in the wings, unable to take the reins of government until Lincoln breathes his last.
This, as deceit and subterfuge unfolds within Lincoln's own Cabinet.
Thus begins the second installment of What If?...The Lincoln Assassination Trilogy.
