Synopsis
The fields at Chickamauga, Georgia, America's oldest national military park, claimed thirty-five thousand casualties during the Civil War, and any good guide will tell you that the grounds are haunted. The battlefield even has its own resident haunt, Old Green Eyes, named for his luminous gaze, long said to mean no harm to those who respect the park: a guardian of the dead, under whose watch graves are not robbed and bones are not moved. But suddenly a different phenomenon starts puzzling and frightening visitors, causing tours to be cancelled and rangers to quit their jobs, and these new ghosts are no illusions carved out of the low-rolling fog. Why do the soldiers march again, and what has become of their unblinking custodian? The spirits need a go-between, someone who can speak to them and for them. Eden Moore is not interested, but the ghosts are not taking no for an answer.
