From the acclaimed author of The Heart of St. Mary's County series comes a captivating Revolutionary War novel of love, loss, betrayal...and deadly secrets.

October 1768.

Impoverished Mercy Allen has been abandoned by nearly everyone, but most recently and painfully by her beloved, Thomas, who had assured her of his intent to marry her. Resolved to avoid the humiliation of passing Thomas and his new wife on the streets, Mercy travels from Quincy, Massachusetts, to Boston, determined to start anew.

Struggling to find employment in a colonial city rumbling with sedition against the British government, Mercy finally manages to procure a humble position with a wigmaker. But patriots and loyalists alike begin to view the wigmaker's shop with suspicion, and it soon comes under vocal criticism and physical attack.

Abandoned again when her employer suddenly closes the shop and flees Boston, Mercy decides to take her new skills to New York City. There, she discovers a life that is even more dangerous and uncertain, particularly when she meets the handsome and enigmatic Daniel Barton.

While Mercy's wigmaking repute grows, so does peril in the colonies as war becomes imminent. When she is asked by a local tailor to commit an act that can only be viewed as treason by the British, Mercy is forced to make an agonizing choice between friendship...and her own life.
