Unmasked, Book One
In the summer of 1775, Emily Cartridge writes a letter to the newly appointed General Carter, offering her services—as a spy.
Willing to do what she must for the cause of American independence, Emily underestimates the struggles of serving in the Continental Army: lies are spread about a friend that could leave them all hanging from a noose, decisions regarding her personal life require answers before long, and loyalty hangs in the balance.
William Shepard, however, enlisted at the earliest opportunity. His bravery and selflessness quickly earned him the rank of colonel; it’s no wonder there’s now a bounty over his head. He’s a quick and loyal friend to the soldiers while the younger ones hover by his side. Willing to sacrifice his life for his closest allies, the war soon causes him to wonder if his soft heart is a virtue or suicide.
Unlocked, Book Two
Emily Cartridge is sure that Locke has gone mad.
Quite frankly, if a bomb goes off in Boston, it will have the opposite effect of what he thinks the British intend. In 1776, Emily finds herself making a trip into Boston over something she finds ludicrous. What she doesn’t know is the clever wit of the enemy that is determined to keep this hidden in the dark—and the costs that come with failure.
William Shepard agrees with the theory. Not only does evidence add up, but he has learned to never underestimate the enemy. Willing to sacrifice anything to keep the cause intact, he never thinks it will force him to face his past, or reveal enemies in the places he thinks are safe.
Unveiled, Book Three
Emily never thought she would hear the words “You’re dismissed,” especially when there is no cause for it.
The unexpected events that follow only trigger her paranoia. As she investigates to uncover intelligence she doesn't know, Emily learns that the dark is only waiting to come into the light—only waiting to haunt her. Bound to secrecy, she knows that one misstep can end life as she knows it.
And though William knows what is happening behind the scenes, he carries the guilt of being unsuccessful at avoiding the consequences. While following a plan that is starting to crumble, he faces an enemy he never expected. As William wrestles with his past, will he be able to overcome it to change his future, or will it hinder him forever?
