The Willing Maid Historical Fiction Paperback Book by C.T. Ritchie 18th Century
Just to live in Boston in 1740, a city fearing invasion from the French in Canada, was dangerous enough. But young Corbet Sigourney risked too much when he dared a private rendezvous with the tempting Lady Fenwick.
For the explosive results of his moment's dalliance were murder, imprisonment, and a desperate jailbreak that drove him aboard the ship The Willing Maid on a savage voyage to the enemy stronghold of Acadia. The stunning series of events forced upon
Corbet two do-or-die decisions: to prove his innocence and to deliver the French fort of Louisbourg over to the New England forces.
Corbet's perilous battle against deceit, brutality and intrigue makes for an unusually fast-moving historical adventure. And the surprise ending is really a stunner!
