When the blood moon rose over Virginia in 2017, the world expected an eclipse—what it got was a warning. Out of the swirling clouds and red-tinged sky, a spectral figure emerged: General Robert E. Lee, astride a ghostly white horse, pointing skyward toward a black hole tearing through the heavens. From that darkness came a shape—not of Earth, but of something far older, far colder. In this bold fusion of historical drama and speculative science fiction, The General in the Moonlight reimagines the legacy of America’s most controversial general, not as a warrior of the past, but as a messenger of mankind’s future. As racial tensions and political divisions rip through modern society, a deeper, darker threat looms from the stars. Lee’s voice echoes through time with a final command: "Unite, or perish." From Jefferson Champagne, author of The Buckingham Plot, comes a visionary tale where the ghosts of history collide with the stars of tomorrow—and Earth’s survival depends on learning from its own divided past.
