Amid the desolation, the woman of Carolina exhibited an example of more than masculine fortitude...Far from being offended at the name of rebel ladies, they esteemed it as a title for distinction and glory. -Eliza Yonge Wilkinson
Eliza is no stranger to both privilege and heartbreak. Widowed at eighteen, she gained self-sufficiency while managing one of her father's plantations. Now, at age twenty-two, marauding Redcoats destroy her home and hard-won independence.
With her family's properties in ruins and their financial future threatened, Eliza's father insists she seek the stability of a new marriage. As she reluctantly navigates the romance and intrigue of Charles Town's social season, two very different men vie for her attention.
The season's revelries come to an end amid the chaos and terror of siege, and when the city falls to the British, Eliza joins other rebel ladies in relief work, intelligence gathering, and sabotage.
Danger mounts as the British banish and imprison patriots to quell civil unrest. Eliza learns of a military operation that could spell disaster for General Francis Marion, commander of the only significant rebel force left in South Carolina. Can she locate the exclusive Swamp Fox and deliver a message of warning in time?
Based on Eliza Yonge Wilkinson's letters that recount her experiences during the American Revolution.
