Instead, he finds himself drawn into a conspiracy to put him and William Clark at the head of a new American empire.

Lewis has his faults, but he's no traitor...and suddenly Lewis the explorer becomes the hunted. As for Clark, he's willing to risk everything to save his best friend from dishonor and disgrace. In the end, neither man can imagine the price they will pay for their loyalty to each other and to their country.
