A great historical fiction book! I was so saddened by Isabel's treatment--Mrs. Lockton is petty and cruel.
In a matter of hours, Isabel has to leave bucolic Rhode Island for the hustle and bustle of colonial New York City - a community intensely divided and caught up in the American colonies struggle for independence. As Isabel tries to work out her own freedom, she soon finds herself a pawn in a game of cat-and-mouse between the Locktons, who are fierce supporters of the king, and the growing rebel forces trying to take over the city.
