If an entire nation could seek its freedom, "why not a girl?"
As the Revolutionary War begins, thirteen-year-old Isabel wages
her own fight...for freedom. Promised freedom upon the death of
their owner, she and her sister, Ruth, in a cruel twist of fate
become the property of a malicious New York City couple, the
Locktons, who have no sympathy for the American Revolution and even
less for Ruth and Isabel. When Isabel meets Curzon, a slave with
ties to the Patriots, he encourages her to spy on her owners, who
know details of British plans for invasion. She is reluctant at
first, but when the unthinkable happens to Ruth, Isabel realizes
her loyalty is available to the bidder who can provide her with
freedom.
From acclaimed author Laurie Halse Anderson comes this
compelling, impeccably researched novel that shows the lengths we
can go to cast off our chains, both physical and spiritual.
