Overview: For Elise, a time-traveling nurse from the 1970s, marriage comes with challenges. Allan Crowley, the man she weds in 1711 is a spy for the Kingdom of Great Britain. Officially, he is a British lord and officer joining an expedition to capture Québec from the French. His real mission is to neutralize spies, traitors, and Jacobites in Colonial New England.
Sailing across the ocean with Allan and the British fleet, Elise discovers she is pregnant and looks forward to raising her family in America. In Boston, she quickly realizes that the Puritan inhabitants of the Province of Massachusetts Bay are not welcoming and staunchly anti-Catholic, and Elise must adjust her lifestyle to fit in this rigid paternalistic society. Worse, after Allan departs to lead his troops against the French, his local adversaries threaten Elise’s life, forcing her to escape the city.
After the failure of the Québec expedition, Elise and Allan settle in the scenic Connecticut River Valley, forming alliances with the local Mohicans and a forward-looking group of Puritans. As Allan unmasks and eliminates his enemies, Elise faces an implacable nemesis whose ambition is to turn the Abenaki tribes inhabiting the Vermont Territory into an army against encroaching British colonists. She must disregard her own safety to secure peace and protect her growing family.
