January 29, 1835 in Baltimore, Maryland. Twenty-year-old
Julienne Lane eagerly awaits the return of her fiancé and
naval officer, Jack Arnaud, but she has not been idle. She
and her best friend, Freeda Payne, have been working hard to
support the abolitionist movement. Their efforts have been
clouded in secrecy, but when Freeda shows up in Julienne’s
cellar with a runaway slave, the need for secrets becomes
imperative.
When Jack returns home, will Julienne threaten his career in
the Navy by including him in their plans, or will she hide
news of the slave from him and put his trust to the test?
Moreover, why does her fiancé appear to be hiding a secret
of his own?
Despite a harrowing tour of duty in the North Atlantic,
Jack’s hopes for rest and recuperation are put on hold. His
wedding to Julienne is in two days, but a more pressing
matter comes to his attention from his associates in the
Culper Ring. Should he ask his beautiful fiancée to postpone
the wedding for the third time in two years? How will he and
the Culper Ring foil the malicious plans they have
uncovered? And why does Julienne blush so brightly when he
asks her about the cellar? The clock is ticking. Danger
looms. Can justice prevail? Will their love survive?
