The Civil War recently ended. Naval Lieutenant Townsend discovers a shipwreck containing a locked cargo hold of dead Black men. Suspecting that they were freedmen kidnapped for re-enslavement, Townsend reports the incident and soon finds himself investigating on his own after his commander tells him to drop the subject. What will Townsend do when he uncovers a conspiracy and family ties to slavery?
HIDDEN CARGO was an excellent historical fiction book. It's clear that the writing was well-researched. There is content that is disturbing to read, even more so knowing that this is inspired by true events. Vivid imagery drops the reader into the middle of the action. Characters are compelling. I liked that the setting was only five months after the Civil War ended. This is not a time period that I typically see.
I would recommend HIDDEN CARGO to fans of historical fiction. This is the first book I've read by Robin Lloyd. I'd be interested in checking out his other works.
