When Felicia Cartright and her friends at the Wellington School for Girls embark on a Revolutionary War research project, they uncover more than they bargained for - a reluctant informant, a centuries-old mystery, and a hidden scandal that someone still wants to keep buried. As clues lead them to a reclusive woman with ties to a disgraced ancestor, the girls must face danger, secrets, and their own convictions in a gripping tale of truth, courage, and faith.
