Fantastic mystery

A thoroughly engaging read, filled with historical interest, amazing characters, and a story line that makes an all night read inevitable.

It is not an historical opus. Question: Did Meriwether get drugged throughout this book, did he have malaria, or was he unbalanced? Author does not answer these possibilities.
