“One of the best novels they have ever read.” —Kirkus Reviews

Blistering winds. Bitter cold. And the hope of a new future.

And then there is Isabel, who is also at Valley Forge—against her will. She and Curzon have to sort out the tangled threads of their friendship while figuring out what stands between the two of them and true freedom.
