Bookroo's summary

Each choice leads to a different fate in this thrilling, multiple-ending journey. Will you alter history or become part of it?

From the publisher

�My name is Felicity Merriman,� says a girl your age. Instead of shorts or jeans, she�s wearing a long blue gown. �Have you just arrived in the city?� She must be one of the junior interpreters, you think. She�s really good, like an actor. You decide to play along. �It seems so.� Felicity nods. �Many have arrived since the royal governor schemed to steal the colonists� gunpowder in the dark of night. Patriots have been streaming into Williamsburg like a river in flood!� What if you suddenly found yourself in Felicity�s world during the American Revolution ? Together, you and Felicity could hang out at her father�s store, sip tea at the Governor�s Place–or get caught up in a gunpowder plot! As you read, you decide what happens next by choosing your own path through this multiple-ending story.
