What is Hannah Sunderland to do? Her twin brother is imprisonned, yet her parents forbid her to help him because of their Quaker faith. However, when she feels the cold and desperation that he feels through that weird twin connection she knows he must seek to help him. How does a Quaker who cannot lie help a brother in jail? She becomes a spy... of course!
Jeremiah Jones is a former soldier who is now a colonial spy and he needs help getting into the jail to help the prisoners escape. Meeting Hannah is just what this spy needs to help him get information in and out of the prison. Who would suspect a Quaker woman of trying to bring aid to her brother?
Hannah is conflicted about the beliefs the Quakers have instilled in her. Are they right? Should conflict be avoided at all cost? Jeremiah is also challenged in this story. He is embittered by his amputation and the loss of the quality of life he had before, but Hannah's quiet strenght and integrity affect him.
While I enjoyed this read, I did not love it. I found the story moved along at a meandering pace and unlike some of the other readers I was not spell bound. I thought it was a good book...just not great.
I received this book from Bethany House Publishers in exchange for my honest opinion.
