Samuel's parents are taken away, prisoners. Samuel follows, hiding, moving silently, determined to find a way to rescue them. Each day he confronts the enemy, and the tragedy and horror of this war. But he also discovers allies, men and women working secretly for the patriot cause. And he learns that he must go deep into enemy territory to find his parents: all the way to the British headquarters, New York City.

Om man vill läsa en bra bok på engelska så kan denna verkligen rekommenderas! Relativt lättläst, spännande och även lärorik bok som utspelar sig under det amerikanska frihetskriget på 1700-talet.
