  • "Must and Shall" is a short story which first appeared in Asimov's in November, 1995. It was subsequently reprinted in Nebula Awards 32, edited by Jack Dann, Harcourt Brace, 1998; Roads Not Taken, edited by Stanley Schmidt and Gardner Dozois, Del Rey, 1998, and; Counting Up, Counting Down; Del Rey, 2002. It is an alternate history story set in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1942, 78 years after the point of divergence. It was nominated for the Sidewise Award, the Nebula Award and the Hugo Award for Best Novelette. History diverged during the Great Rebellion (1861-1865) when President Abraham Lincoln was killed by a Confederate sharpshooter on July 12, 1864 while inspecting the ramparts at Fort Stevens north of Washington, DC. His successor Hannibal Hamlin felt that Lincoln's plans for a Reconstruction of the rebellious territories were too lenient, and promised harsh retribution, including the execution of all Confederate higher-ups in his inaugural speech on July 21. By the time the story takes place, the South has been seething under suppression as an occupied territory for 77 years. World War II is in progress. Agent Neil Michaels of the Federal Bureau of Suppression has been sent down from the North to stop a neo-Confederate uprising sponsored by the Nazis.
