The Devil Wears Red

In this third novel of the Tewkesbury Chronicles trilogy, it is 1781, and the French have sailed to New England to assist the struggling Continental Army in its quest to defeat the British. Privateering is a lucrative pastime for seamen along the Connecticut coast, and Patriots risk their lives to steadfastly ply the waters of Long Island Sound. Our Patriot family of the Whites and the Tewkesburys from books I and II of the Tewkesbury Chronicles, is deeply embedded in privateering efforts. The young widow, Rebecca Tewkesbury, risks losing love again, while her sister, the independent-minded and ever-adventurous Mehti, comes of age. But sinister elements invade their lives and the traitorous Benedict Arnold invades New London and Groton, Connecticut.
