THE EYE THAT NEVER SLEEPS

BY marissa moss

Everyone knows the story of Abraham Lincoln, but few know anything about the spy who saved his life on the way to his 1861 inauguration! In The Eye That Never Sleeps, award-winning author and illustrator Marissa Moss reveals the true story of Allen Pinkerton.

A poor Scottish immigrant, Pinkerton became the first police detective in Chicago before opening the country’s most successful detective agency. He solved more than 300 murders and recovered millions of dollars in stolen money. However, his greatest contribution was foiling an assassination plot against Abraham Lincoln.
