Twice Betrayed (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780991190430)

Middle Grade Historical Fiction - Colonial Philadelphia.The thread of friendship is stretched to the breaking point...With the spark of independence crackling in Colonial Philadelphia, Perdy Rogers chafes under the strict rule of her Quaker grandmother and the endless duties of her apprenticeship in Betsy Ross's upholstery shop. So when her best friend shares a secret and invites Perdy to help plan an elopement, she's thrilled to be with her friends again. But Perdy has no idea that one favor will unravel the stable fabric of her life and involve her in a tangled web of deceit, lies and treachery.Disguised as boys, three girls head to the river to put Perdy's plan into action, but only two return. When the third, a young milliner's assistant, is found drowned with gold coins sewn into her hems, coded spy letters in her bodice, and a journal implicating another sewing apprentice as her co-conspirator, all eyes turn to Perdy Rogers. But she's no spy! Accused of treason, she struggles to prove her innocence with the help of a handsome stranger and learns the hard way that freedom, whether an individual's or a country's, comes at a cost.
