A slave and her owner conspire to help Lincoln win the American Civil War. This historically true espionage story follows the heroic intelligence work of slave Mary Bowser, who conspired with her abolitionist owner Elizabeth Van Lew that Bowser be “hired out” as a dining room serving girl in the household of Jefferson Davis. There she reported what she saw and heard – strategies, troop movements, battle plans -- to Van Lew, who sent the information north to the Union. Mary Bowser became Abraham Lincoln’s eyes and ears in the heart of the Confederacy.
