Nathan Hale's fiancée Mercy Howard never imagined that her journal kept during the American spy's trial and execution by the British would help a woman two centuries later. Joining a spy ring in 1776 Manhattan to avenge her lover's death, she finds it difficult to maintain an even keel when she meets the charming British Maj. John André of the King's Army during an information gathering mission. In 2016, New York radio advice personality Natalie Abbott can solve everyone's problems but her own. When everything in her life seems to come apart one day, she has no idea how to move forward until Mercy's journal finds its way into her hands.
VERDICT Filled with fascinating historical details, Chiavaroli's second novel (after Freedom's Ring) once again connects two women through an artifact of the past. This heartrending tale will engage aficionados of the American Revolution and historical fiction.
