Dual Convergence: the Wire and Hill

In Umbra, Veritas "In the shadows, there is truth." Teddy, known to some as "Bull," short for "Bull Moose," for the way he charges into battle, carries the same name. He also knows the truth. Colonel Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt IV, retired Army officer, West Point professor, and great-nephew of President Theodore Roosevelt, has spent his life in the shadow of history, earning his own place in it. When Hollywood and popular culture distort the story of San Juan Hill, Teddy sets out to reclaim it, not as an academic exercise, but as a moral obligation. Along the way, he encounters resistance at every turn. Publishers who reject him for his name, historians who bristle at an outsider stepping onto sacred ground, and a legacy that refuses to stay silent. The question driving him forward is simple and dangerous. What happens when legend replaces truth?
