The Box of Secrets
An antique trunk purchased at auction contains secrets that lead Greta and her grandfather on a
veritable treasure hunt through history. Will they be able to keep the treasure, or at least keep
it out of the hands of those who want to steal it? The answer rests with members of the
Culper spy ring, who served George Washington and helped to win the American Revolution.
As Greta and Gramps trace the contents of the box in the present, some of the most charismatic
characters of the Revolution—George Washington, Benedict Arnold, John Andre, and a lady spy simply
known as Agent 355—weave the historical account of how a group of volunteer spies from Long Island
thwarted the mighty British Empire. The greatest army and navy in the world could not humble the
upstart rebels into submission.
Combining historical fact and a contemporary mystery, the author has created an entertaining adventure
with colorful personalities and not a few surprises. Sometimes history is stranger than fiction!
