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.

Book 2 of "The Unmasked Trilogy"
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.

Bound to secrecy, she knows that one misstep can end life as she knows it.

THE COMPANION NOVEL…
Locked & Chained, an Unmasked Novel
Ever since his father’s affairs came into the light, Benjamin has been seeking a way out of Philadelphia to start afresh. And he has everything lined up. One final job.
Having made a bet for his tickets, Benjamin knows that he has nothing to worry about. The rest of the money will be collected easily, and he will never have to see Philadelphia’s shores again. But when he arrives at his next surveying location, he realizes that his escape to Britain may not be lined with only his father’s mistakes, but potentially his own as well.
Upon seeing a tombstone with the present day’s date engraved, he knows that it’s tied with a murder. When he meets a group of unlikely lawyers and friends of the victim, who all speak of political jargon and good intentions, he wants nothing to do with them. But little does Benjamin know what secrets lurk and how easily he can be entangled in this mess.
Will Benjamin ever be able to free himself from the chains his past have him locked in? Or is the key lost forever?
