After meeting a curious, old beggar one dark and foggy night, he proceeds to tell me a series of strange and fascinating stories. As I listen, I am transported to a mining town in which a man discovers a skeleton clutching a valuable, yet deadly, object. Next, I find myself in a suburban neighborhood with a man whose love of gardening leads to obsession, misery, and ultimately death. Then, I am taken to London where I encounter a writer who, after purchasing a mysterious typewriter, finds himself in serious trouble with the law. And finally, I visit a nervous chemist, whose attempt to cure himself of his fears has unintended consequences.

When John Wilkes Booth stepped into that theatre to assassinate Abraham Lincoln, he did so without the knowledge or consent of the Confederate government. But what if the Confederates had developed their own plot to assassinate the President? It's early spring in 1865. The bloodiest war in the nation's history is coming to an end. Despite their best efforts, the Confederates are losing and they know it. Borne out of desperation, members of the rebel government develop a plot to assassinate Abraham Lincoln, hoping that such an act might help turn things around. Against the orders of Confederate President, Jefferson Davis, the deadly plot is set into motion when a trio of hired killers are summoned from Canada to carry out the assassination. Meanwhile, Jack Wescott, a down and out Union soldier who recently deserted his regiment after learning that his wife left him, accidentally overhears details of the plot while lying in an alley after a drunken fight in a tavern in the nation's capital. This sets him on a dangerous mission to discover the true nature of the plot, track down the assassins, and stop them before they can carry out their deadly task.

Sam Reed is not your average hitman. Unlike most others, he has a conscious. Unfortunately, it's his conscious that puts him in the river with a bullet wound in his back courtesy of his boss, a mobster named Vince Zapato. But rather than return to his career as a hitman, the experience changes Sam. With the help of a former police chief and his son, Sam decides to use his talents for good. He decides to become the Specter, a masked vigilante willing to do whatever is necessary to take down Zapato and men like him. Meanwhile, Zapato is waging a war on the city's police force and the district attorney. Can the Specter stop him before it's too late? Can he save the city while keeping those he cares about safe?

Sam enlists the help of his friends, Red Donnelly and Jack McNulty, and together they uncover a plot far more sinister than first thought.

With lives hanging in the balance, including those of three young children, the Specter sets his deadly sights on finding those responsible. But can he save the children and stop the kidnappers without losing his own life in the process?
