Bookroo's summary

In 1774 Virginia, Felicity Merriman, a spirited young girl, faces the growing unrest between colonists and the British. As her birthday nears, she stumbles upon a perilous secret that could endanger Williamsburg. With her loyalty tested, Felicity must decide whether to risk everything to warn her community. Will her courage and determination be enough to protect those she loves and her burgeoning nation? Adventure and responsibility collide as Felicity navigates the challenges of a world on the brink of revolution.

From the publisher

Felicity Merriman is a spunky, spritely girl growing up in Virginia in 1774, just before the Revolutionary War. Felicity’s stories tell of the adventures of this spirited girl, who grows impatient doing the “sitting down kinds of things” that colonial girls are expected to do. Felicity much prefers to be outdoors, especially riding horses! In her stories, Felicity learns about responsibility and loyalty – to her family, her friends, and her new country – and what it means to be truly free.After disobeying her parents, Felicity over-hears an important message that means danger for Williamsburg – and decides to alert the colonists herself!
