The Silver Bullet is the first volume of Jim DeFelice's rollicking, fast-paced adventure series set during the American Revolution. The series blends historical and fictional characters to recreate a thrilling time in America's history.
Across the colonies, good men take up arms against the tyranny of England and King George. But their leaders need someone who can infiltrate the British army, sneak behind enemy lines, and bring back intelligence. That man is Lieutenant Colonel Jake Gibbs, a master spy with General George Washington's secret service. He's got a flair for danger and a knack for executing the impossible.
On the order of General Washington, Jake Gibbs travels in disguise from Albany to Montreal. There, he must find out the plans for English General Burgoyne's impending assault through the Hudson River Valley. Jake's mission is to intercept Burgoyne's orders, hidden inside a silver bullet, and deliver new and misleading orders to the British headquarters in Manhattan. To succeed, Jake must out-fight and out-smart the deadliest enemies (including the King's secret assassin) and work with the most slippery of allies (namely, the portly Dutch trader and inveterate complainer Claus van Clynne), and avoid the entanglements of a bevy of French, English and Patriotic beauties.
