"Set among the splendor of the Rocky Mountains in 1880, The Grant Conspiracy takes you to a Colorado mining town being torn apart by an evil law firm out for revenge for Black Friday. Frost and Hancock are ex-Confederates who, with the help of their henchmen, are plotting the assassination of former president Ulysses S. Grant. But they're not angry over the war; rather, their hatred comes from pure greed. They lost their fortunes when Grant dumped government gold on the market. Now, with Grant planning a tour of the Rockies by wagon, they're scheming to lure him to Mountain Springs by inviting Matt Tyler, the man who saved the general's life during the war, to come work for their law firm. However, President Hayes is on to them and he's sending the young lawyer to Colorado on a dangerous mission to scuttle their plan. Greeted by the brutal murder of a law clerk, Matt can immediately smell trouble in the air. With allies such as the beautiful Jennifer White, who has incurred the constant ire of the firm with her blazing newspaper editorials, and a black veteran, Matt sets out to save Grant's life a second time-and bring peace to the fractured town"--,Provided by publisher.
