Frank and his adopted family have plenty of work to do. The guests are thirsty and they want new drinks, the walls yearn for more heads...er, trophies, and his purse dreams of being just a bit fuller. Popularity is never something Frank yearned for, but the club has made him rather important to the Ashpit and its inhabitants.

Deals are offered, new faces promise him the world, and gold begins to flow...but as it usually goes, everything that seems to good to be true, usually is.

I became very good at hiding long before I understood it as a survival mechanism. I learned to shrink myself in doorways, in conversations, in rooms where the wrong kind of attention could snap the air like a belt, and under beds with my face in a pillow when the abuse got real. I learned silence as a second language and then as a first. Some children are taught to speak up, shine, and be seen. I was taught to scan a room like a soldier. To anticipate shifts in weather that had nothing to do with the sky. To make myself small. Then smaller. Then gone.

Between King Cotton and Queen Victoria recenters our understanding of the Civil War by framing it as a hemispheric affair, deeply influenced by the actions of a network of private parties and minor officials in the Confederacy and British territory in and around North America.
