It's 1777. The fate of the American Revolution is in serious doubt, and new immigrants fourteen-year-old Rory Campbell and his sister Sarah want to be part of the excitement. Their older cousins are already working for independence - Malcolm in the army, and Hugh in the Seacoast Defense, protecting the coast of Maine.But neither of them ever dream the critical roles they will each play in the war after Sarah goes to live with a Royalist widow upriver in Wiscasset, where spies are everywhere and the British Navy is all too close by, and Rory runs away to join the York militia, headed for Saratoga, New York, to reinforce the army on the Hudson River for the first critical battle of the Revolution.Rory's and Sarah's stories alternate, as they see the war and their new country from different places...and find that their courage and bravery can make major differences to the future of their new nation.
