Meanwhile, Cory and the woman he loves, Lucille Farrell, are working with her uncle, Col. Charles Thompson of the Mississippi Home Guard, and a small contingent of dedicated Southerners to keep the supplies rolling in. In the waning months of 1862, as the Union army advances closer and closer, Cory must abandon the wagon train to undertake a vital mission for Confederate Gen. John Pemberton, the commander in charge of Vicksburg’s defenses, a task that eventually takes him dangerously close to the Union lines in Middle Tennessee. At the end of Cory’s journey, however, is an even more dangerous foray into Western Tennessee on a critical mission for the horse soldiers of Nathan Bedford Forrest, Cory’s mentor from the battle of Shiloh. Nothing is as easy as it seems, especially in war, and Cory finds that he cannot return to Vicksburg as quickly as he would like.
Cory’s efforts to save Vicksburg are unable to prevent the inevitable, as the Yankees eventually surround and lay siege to the city.
In the meantime, Lucille must also cope with unexpected challenges as she encounters a family friend with some secret plans of his own. There also are some within the city who are working toward a Yankee victory. The Federal bombardment, illness, injury, and starvation all take their toll on the defenders of Vicksburg, forcing Cory and Lucille to face decisions that threaten not only their love but also their lives.
