El azar ha convertido a Nathaniel Starbuck en un «copperhead», un norteño que en la guerra de Secesión americana lucha en el bando del Sur rebelde. Con la ayuda de Allan Pinkerton, su espía jefe, el general McClellan está convencido de poder llevar a los nordistas hasta las puertas de la capital rebelde, Richmond. Starbuck, expulsado de su regimiento por su fundador, el vanidoso Washington Faulconer, deberá recorrer un arduo camino para reunirse de nuevo con sus camaradas: pasará por las cárceles inhumanas de Richmond, cruzará los ensangrentados y humeantes campos de batalla de Virginia, e incluso se infiltrará en el alto mando del ejército nordista. Porque Starbuck se ha unido a la «guerra en la sombra» de la traición y el espionaje, en la que nada es seguro y en nadie se puede confiar. Una de las mejores novelas jamás escritas sobre los servicios secretos en tiempos de guerra.
