This story takes place during the tie of the American Revolutionary War. Tim has an older brother named Sam who is a Rebel soldier. However, Tim's family has a tavern in Redding, a Tory (loyalist) country. One day, he gets into trouble and his life is in danger. Can Tim save his brother? This story tells all the specific details about life during the Revolutionary War and what different kinds of feeling that Tory, Rebel, and neutrals had. Because there is some violence and inappropriate words, I'd highly recommend this "5 star" book to grade 5 and up.
