The Cautious Siege: A Novel Of The American Revolution (Loyalties)

In the tradition of the best historical fiction, The Cautious Siege takes readers on an adventure-filled journey that resounds with military achievement, conflict between revenge and justice, and the quest for love, belonging, and peace. It is the winter of 1775-76 and, returning from Transcendent Loyalties, Daniel Garrett, Anna Somerset, and Drummond Fisackerly are locked in the tension and wretchedness that are the Siege of Boston. Surrounded by General Washington's motley army, Boston suffers under the life-threatening grip of smallpox, dysentery, and privation. Across the Back Bay, in Washington's camp, conditions are only nominally better. It is a complex, tinderbox situation, destined for violent explosion. The question is, who will control the manner of that explosion and how? Knowing that survival of America's tenuous bid for self-determination rests on this moment, General Washington boldly chooses to pursue a risky gambit for gaining the upper hand. For Daniel, Anna, and Drum, the endeavor will be fraught with danger and personal trials that will test their courage and commitment to the fullest. For them, it is not just the survival of the rebellion that is at stake-it is their very lives and futures.
