It was to be a simple assignment for private investigator Sam Blackman and his partner, Nakayla Robertson: follow a history professor, who is suing a spinal surgeon for malpractice, and catch her in physical activities that undercut her claim. When the woman visits the home of the poet Carl Sandburg in North Carolina and climbs the arduous trail to the top of Glassy Mountain, Sam believes he has the evidence he needs to wrap up the case--until he finds the woman semiconscious and bleeding on the mountain's granite outcrop. Her final words were "It's the Sandburg verses." As the first person to discover the dying woman, Sam becomes the prime suspect. Now Sam and Nakayla must navigate a convoluted trail of historical facts and mountain legends to arrive at the truth--a truth that Carl Sandburg never knew he possessed.
