355: The Women of Washington's Spy Ring (Women Spies)

Who was the Mysterious 355?

A semi-finalist in the GOETHE Book Awards for post-1750s Historical Fiction

AMCâ€™s Turn and the Broadway musical Hamilton have brought Revolutionary spies such as Robert Townsend and Hercules Mulligan back into the light. But what about the unsung women spies, including the mysterious 355, that could â€œoutwit them all?â€

British sympathizer Meg Moncrieffe expects to find the carefree America she remembers as a youth when she returns from her Irish boarding school. Instead she finds the new country at war, with her father on one side and her new love, Aaron Burr, on the other. When her misguided attempt to end the war results in dire consequences for the Continental Army, Meg switches allegiances in order to amend the damage she caused.

After her husband Jonathan is captured by the British and dies aboard one of the notorious prison ships, a pregnant Elizabeth Burgin realizes she is stronger than she once thought. When a prominent member of the Culper Ring enlists her help on a heist of the prison ships, Elizabeth readily accepts, putting herself and her family in jeopardy in order to save the lives of strangers.

When Sally Townsend's family is forced to house British soldiers, Sally seizes the opportunity to gather information and pass it on to her brother, Robert, knowing that one false move could result in the noose for both of them. Instead of panicking when British intelligence officer Major John AndrÃ© shows up at her familyâ€™s doorstep, Sally finds herself falling in love. But Major AndrÃ© is playing the same dangerous game as her and Robertâ€¦ for the other side.
