The Blacksmith's Daughteraf Suzanne Adair
Bag om The Blacksmith's Daughter

With her mother on the run, suspected of being a traitor, and with a new baby on the way, 1780 is shaping up to be a tough year for Betsy Sheridan. Things become even more dangerous for the seventeen-year-old when she discovers the father of her child has been posing as a loyalist to smuggle information to patriot spies in the Carolinas. Then Betsy learns that the man she has always thought to be her own father was not - that her real father was blacksmith Mathias Hale. Hale and Betsy's mother, Sophie Barton, are reputed to be hiding in South Carolina. Betsy and her husband, Clark, travel to the Georgia frontier town of Alton to pick up the trail of her fugitive parents, only to come under the suspicions of British Lieutenant Dunstan Fairfax. Mathias and Sophie had escaped Fairfax's clutches earlier, and now the brutal redcoat sees a way to exact a measure of revenge through Betsy and Clark. Filled with action and suspense, The Blacksmith's Daughter is the second book following the exploits of Sophie Barton and her family as they are forced to choose sides in the war for American independence. From frontier Georgia, to the South Carolina back country, finally climaxing with the Battle of Camden, Suzanne Adair has earned her place as a rising star of historical fiction!
