From Marie Benedict, best-selling author of The Only Woman in the
Room and Lady Clementine, comes a captivating work of historical
fiction about a young female spy who may have changed the course of
American history.
The tide is turning against the colonists in the Revolutionary War, and
18-year-old Elizabeth Morris cannot sit by idly. Quietly disdainful of
her Tory parents, who drag her along to society events and welcome a
British soldier into their home during their occupation of New York
City, Elizabeth decides to take matters into her own hands. She realizes
that, as a young woman, no one around her believes that she can
comprehend the profound implications of being a nation at war - she is,
effectively, invisible. And she can use this invisibility to her
advantage. Her unique access to British society leads her to a role with
General George Washington's own network of spies: the Culper Ring.
Based on true events, Agent 355 combines adventure, romance, and
espionage to bring to life this little-known story of a hero who risked
her life to fight for freedom against all odds.
