Did America's "father" tell a deadly lie? Thomas Hickey was the first soldier to be sentenced to execution by the fledgling United States government. Was he simply a traitor who sold out his adopted country for a few dollars? Or was he one of the scores of paid spies recruited by George Washington? Did the general from Virginia sacrifice Hickey for the good of the cause? "Moon Cursers" is a compelling fictional tale of power, love, lust and corruption amidst the birth of a nation. From the fine mansions of Boston to the steamy brothels of New York's tenderloin, known as the "Holy Ground," the dates are accurate, most of the players real. Where does fact leave off and fiction begin? You decide.
