This novel explores the life of Junius Booth, a talented but unstable English actor who moves to a remote cabin near Baltimore with his wife and their ten children. Only six survive infancy, including John Wilkes Booth, the middle son known for his fiery temperament. In 1865, John Wilkes becomes infamous for assassinating President Abraham Lincoln at a theatre, an act that alters history and devastates his family. The story examines the influences of family and society on personal choices, questioning what leads someone to commit such an atrocity and how loved ones cope with the aftermath.
