BETSY ROSS: ACCIDENTAL SPY

. . . A HISTORICAL SUSPENSE novel set in Colonial America. The book was originally published in print by Mayfair Mysteries and is available from major on-line retailers in print and e-book.

In Philadelphia 1776, Betsy Ross wonders what really happened the night of the munitions warehouse explosion that killed her beloved husband John Ross. Was it an accident or was the warehouse file intentionally set? Was someone attempting to steal the Patriot weapons and gunpowder stored there? When the authorities refuse to investigate the crime, Betsy determines to uncover the truth, and soon finds herself drawn into Philadelphia’s confusing underworld of spies and double agents working for both the British and the patriots. Ultimately she has no choice but to trust the wrong man, but will she lose her life, or the lives of those she holds dear, in the process?

“Betsy Ross: Accidental Spy will leave you breathless with anticipation wondering if Betsy will succeed in her mission to bring down the ruthless double spy intent on thwarting the rebel cause. Chock full of fascinating historical details about the Revolutionary war period in our nation’s history, Betsy Ross: Accidental Spy is highly recommended.” . . . Richard Whitaker, historian.

“A truly suspenseful and thrilling tale with an intelligent and feisty heroine whom we are all familiar with from our knowledge of American history. Ms. Clay has written a clever and imaginative tale providing Betsy Ross the opportunity to use both her talent as a seamstress and an intuitive woman to solve a real-life crime that even today remains an American mystery. Very well done!” . . . Melissa Frederick, writer.

“Breathtakingly suspenseful! Another gripping tale from this masterful storyteller!” . . . Anna Campbell.
