On a dark night in 1775, Lizzie Boylston is awakened by the sound of cannons. From a hill south of Boston, she watches as fires burn in Charlestown, in a battle that she soon discovers has claimed her husband's life.
Alone in a new town, Lizzie grieves privately but takes comfort in her deepening friendship with Abigail Adams. Soon, word spreads of Lizzie's extraordinary midwifery and healing skills, and she begins to channel her grief into caring for those who need her. But when two traveling patriots are poisoned, Lizzie finds herself with far more complicated matters on her hands - she suspects a political plot intended to harm Abigail and her family. Determined to uncover the truth, Lizzie becomes entangled in a conspiracy that could not only destroy her livelihood - and her chance at finding love again - but also lead to the downfall of a new nation.

Any additional comments?
This book was slow to start but the writing and language were so engaging that I stuck with it and boy, am I glad I did! Great characters, story, and period language. Wished for a little more description and focus on the "romantic" scenes but what was given is good enough. Great listen too. Narration, I thought, was engaging and read well while giving each character its own personality and life. Great Job!Slow Beginning but great middle and end!
