The deBlaca family, immigrants from Ireland fleeing from British oppression in 1848, settled in Washington where they established the successful Black Arms Company. Liam, their only child, graduated from George Washington University top of his class with a double major, law and engineering. He was recruited to head the US Marshals service early in the Lincoln administration. Civil war was near certain, slavery the topic on every tongue, clashing in the streets common, unrest and tension percolating, jails overflowing with protesters and ruffians. The United States near imploding from within. Then the unthinkable happens sending Liam into deep despair, seething with unrestrained rage and questioning his faith and respect for the rule of law."
