Customer Reviews

Good read for Revolutionary War history buffs

I enjoyed this book because I had just finished reading Dan Abrams book on The Boston Massacre trial. Jane's character is strong, independent and becomes stronger as the story unfolds. Too bad there's no sequel....maybe she goes back to Boston as a spy? Oh well. I recommend it for it's good history.
