Halestorm
by Becky Akers
Set during the American Revolution, Halestorm brings one of the war's most adorable heroes to life: Nathan Hale, the 21-year-old spy who "only regretted he had but one life to give for his country." Nathan is in love with a girl his father disapproves; worse, a rival for her hand will do anything, even murder, to win her. Their contest for the lady culminates in a British Artillery Park, when Nathan hangs for espionage -- but, in a surprising twist, triumphs regardless.
