| There
was na civil war. A war that split the nation, a war
that made brother fight brother and that made father fight son. A war that
made many famous generals and many great heroes. But famous or not, a man
only dies once. In 1864 a plan was worked out. Wise
men had thought in over a long time and that day the wheels
were set in motion. Eleanor Mitchell was a detective from the famous Pinkerton Agency. She had orders to eliminate a number of Southern generals, to try to force a decision, to try to put an end to the war. Her first victim was General Hood. In disguise as a member of the Party of Freedom and with the help of a Lieutenant Mike Blueberry, with whom she was to have a brief relationship, she managed to reach Atlanta and she even succeeded in killing the general. But then things went wrong. The man she had killed was dubbel of Hood and it became clear to her that she was framed. Because it was obvious that she was betrayed by her agency, the famous Alan Pinkerton, she changed her mission herself and closed ranks with the general she was supposed to kill. She joined the the Bloody Dagger society with John Wilkes Boots who had detailed plans of murdering president Lincoln. Eleanor was deadly with a knife as well a with the pistol and very clever. The only clues she left behind were of dead bodies that trailed her like her footsteps. |
