From Puritan Execution Day rituals to gangsta rap, the black criminal has been an enduring presence in American culture. To understand why, Jeannine Marie DeLombard insists, we must set aside the lenses of pathology and persecution and instead view the African American felon from the far more revealing perspectives of publicity and personhood. When the Supreme Court declared in Dred Scott that African Americans have "no rights which the white man was bound to respect," it overlooked the right to due process, which ensured that black offenders—even slaves—appeared as persons in the eyes of the law. In the familiar account of African Americans' historical shift "from plantation to prison," we have forgotten how, for a century before the Civil War, state punishment affirmed black political membership in the breach, while a thriving popular crime literature provided early America's best-known models of individual black selfhood. Before there was the slave narrative, there was the criminal confession. Placing the black condemned at the forefront of the African American canon allows us to see how a later generation of enslaved activists—most notably, Frederick Douglass—could marshal the public presence and civic authority necessary to fashion themselves as eligible citizens. At the same time, in an era when abolitionists were charging Americans with the national crime of "manstealing," a racialized sense of culpability became equally central to white civic identity. What, for African Americans, is the legacy of a citizenship grounded in culpable personhood? For white Americans, must membership in a nation built on race slavery always betoken guilt? In the Shadow of the Gallows reads classics by J. Hector St. John de Crèvecoeur, Edgar Allan Poe, Frederick Douglass, Herman Melville, George Lippard, and Edward Everett Hale alongside execution sermons, criminal confessions, trial transcripts, philosophical treatises, and political polemics to address fundamental questions about race, responsibility, and American civic belonging.

Join Daisy Kirkcaldy, posthumous daughter of the Knight of Grange, and Will Hepburn, son of James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell, as their adventures continue into the reign of James I of England. In the fourth book in the Legacy of the Queen of Scots series, it is early autumn, 1605. Marie Stuart's son James VI of Scotland has been James I of England for two and a half years (1603: The Queen's Revenge). The crowns of England and Scotland have been joined. The King has settled in London and rules Scotland 'with his pen.' Will and Daisy have built a cottage on the shores of the Firth at Kinghorn. Will travels to the Low Countries to order a new topsail for the mizzen on one of his merchant ships, when his expatriate friend Jamie Maitland, summons him to Brussels. Maitland has uncovered a new plot against the king, launched by a fanatic group of Catholic Midland aristocrats. Much to Maitland's consternation, Hepburn declines to become involved in what he considers an English problem. After their last adventure nearly ended in disaster, Will has promised Daisy to cease meddling in foreign intrigues and devote his attentions to his family, his ships and his sheep. They continue to lead a quiet life in Kinghorn until a band of intruders murders their master of the household and kidnaps Peter, their six-year-old wee lad. As Will and Daisy and a cadre of former Reivers pursue the abductors, they sense they are not dealing with run-of-the-mill kidnappers. Peter's abduction is a Blackmail. People in high places are determined to keep Hepburn from warning the king, and not all of them are hot-headed English dissidents. Some of them are Scots, and all of them are ruthless. With the entire Royal Family and the English peerage at risk, Will and Daisy and their reiver friends cross the Border to meet a greater challenge than the rescue of a single child.
