A TRAITOR IN THEIR MIDST Maggie McNair had to work long hours in her stepfather’s tavern. And she had to be quick to escape the sharp tongue of the cook and the pawing hands of the officers. She hated her work, but she was good at it and besides it gave her a chance to overhear the British officers as they plotted with their leader, the cruel Colonel Fairfax. No one at the tavern knew Maggie had joined the small band of American patriots. No one knew she had secretly married their rebel leader, Seth Wright. No one knew she was the one who gave away the Colonel’s plans. But as the messages began to backfire, and as the rebel plans began to go horribly amiss, the suspicion that a traitor was in the rebel band grew into a certainly … And Maggie herself was the bait in a diabolical plot to destroy the rebel cause.
