THE BOOK

 

  

THE BLURB

Lilyan joins Patriot spies in British-occupied Charlestown, South Carolina, to rescue her brother from a notorious prison ship. She'll lie, steal, kill or be killed in order to protect her family. Desperate for help, she seeks out Nicholas, a scout with Francis Marion’s partisans. Together the pair set out to save her brother.

But will they reach him in time? Or will her growing feelings for Nicholas compromise their mission and send the pair to the gallows?

 

THE FIRST LINE

November 16, 1780

Charlestown, South Carolina

A muffled thump plucked Lilyan Cameron from a pleasant dream.

 

 

THE AUTHOR

 A history lover, Susan F. Craft researches for her novels with the same excitement as Alan Quartermain hunting for King Solomon's Mines and with the persistence of Lewis and Clark. She enjoys the chase when a clue leads her from one "treasure" to the next, to the next.

Susan retired from a 45-year career in writing, editing, and communicating in business settings.

She authored a historical romantic suspense trilogy, Women of the American Revolution (The Chamomile, Laurel, and Cassia) which received national recognition, two of the books receiving national Silver Illumination Awards, and the other an Okra Pick, and a Christy Award nomination.

In 2024 Wild Heart Books released three of Susan's Christian Historical Romances, part of her Great Wagon Road series—Love's Winding Road, Trail of Promises, and Trail to Love.

An admitted history nerd, she enjoys painting, singing, listening to music, and sitting on her porch with her doxipoo, Steeler, who watches uninterested as geese eat her daylillies. She most recently took up the ukulele.
