The Lincoln Conspiracy: The Secret Plot to Kill America's 16th President⁠—and Why It Failed by Brad Meltzer, Brad Meltzer, Josh Mensch

4.0

Everyone knows the story of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination in 1865, but few are aware of the original conspiracy to kill him four years earlier in 1861, literally on his way to Washington, DC, for his first inauguration.

I had a small book hangover after I finished this book. This book was amazing. Of course we are taught about the tragic assassination of former President Lincoln from elementary school, but I had no idea about an earlier attempt on his way to the White House. Meltzer's approach to writing does an amazing job keeping the suspense building & don't want to stop reading/listening. If he keeps writing books like this. I'll keep reading/listening to them.
