Description
The Blooding by James McGee In 1812, America is at war with Britain. Matthew Hawkwood, a former soldier and spy, has arrived in America with a plan to reach the British lines in Canada. However, when he discovers that Major William Lawrence, a fellow prisoner, is among the consignment of British prisoners, his plans are put into jeopardy. Hawkwood and Lawrence must navigate their way through the treacherous Adirondack mountains, known as the Mohawk's 'Hunting Grounds', to reach safety. But they soon uncover a plot by the Americans to launch an invasion against Canada, which could give them control of the entire continent. With their lives at risk, Hawkwood and Lawrence must pass on crucial information to the British before it's too late. Their quest is complicated by a deep-seated alliance from Hawkwood's past, one that could save both their lives and Canada from American rule.
