520 |a Abraham Lincoln faced a dangerous and uncertain future when he left Springfield, Illinois, for his inauguration in Washington, DC. Luckily for him, detective Kate Warne had his back, even if he didn't know it yet. Hired by the Pinkerton Detective Agency, Kate Warne used her exceptional acting and conversational skills to uncover the rebel plot to kill Lincoln in Baltimore, the only Southern city on his route to DC. Though men in this era were often reluctant to listen to a woman, Kate was persuasive and eventually got the president-elect to agree to her secret plan: Lincoln would travel disguised as her sick brother. Join Kate and the president as they travel on a night train from Philadelphia, covertly making their way through Baltimore in the wee hours of the morning and then on to Washington. And keep an eye out for spies and assassins! This exciting American history picture book from award-winning author Beth Anderson, well-known for action-packed books on daring women, and illustrated by Sally Wern Comport in her signature mix of collage, drawing, and paint, brings Kate to thrilling and vivid life. Story Locale: Springfield, IL; New York, NY; Philadelphia and Harrisburg, PA; Baltimore, MD; Washington, DC.
