| Summary | "The Lost Despatch" by Natalie Sumner Lincoln is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. Set during the American Civil War, the book likely explores themes of espionage, loyalty, and the complexity of human relationships amid the backdrop of war. The story involves Captain Lloyd and his companion, Symonds, who are engaged in secret service operations that lead them into encounters with spies and deception, ultimately revolving around a central female character, Nancy. The opening of the novel introduces a tense December night in 1864, where Captain Lloyd and Symonds are riding through the Maryland woods as they pursue leads related to a spy. Their mission is complicated when they encounter a Confederate courier revealed to be a woman, provoking a surprise attack that leads to a chaotic scene. Meanwhile, the tension of impending threats looms large as Lloyd contemplates the dangers of espionage and deception in Washington. The narrative sets the stage for a gripping tale of intrigue and personal stakes, promising a mix of action, character development, and the moral dilemmas faced during wartime.
