A reimagining of the story behind Agent 355--a New York society girl and spy for George Washington during the Revolutionary War--perfect for fans of Tatiana de Rosnay's Sarah's Key and the novels of Julie Berry. Rebellious Frannie Tasker knows little about the war between England and its thirteen colonies in 1776, until a shipwreck off her home in Grand Bahama Island presents an unthinkable opportunity. The body of a young woman body floating in the sea gives Frannie the chance to escape her brutal stepfather--and she takes it. Assuming the identity of the drowned Emmeline Coates, Frannie is rescued by a British merchant ship and sails with the crew to New York. For the next three years, Frannie lives a lie as Miss Coates, swept up in a courtship by a dashing British lieutenant. But after witnessing the darker side of the war, she realizes that her position gives her power. Soon she's eavesdropping on British officers, risking everything to pass information on to George Washington's Culper spy ring as agent 355. Frannie believes in the fight for American liberty--but what will it cost her? Inspired by the true "355" and rich in historical detail and intrigue, this is the story of an unlikely New York society girl turned an even unlikelier spy.

Aria sa vracia do sveta divochov, smrtiaceho éteru a tisícky ďalších nebezpečenstiev. Na príkaz konzula Hessa má vymámiť z drsného náčelníka severského kmeňa Rohov Soboľa polohu Modrej tíšiny – miesta, na ktoré éter neútočí. Nemá na výber. Hess drží ako rukojemníka Sokolovho synovca Pazúrika a prepustí ho, až keď obyvatelia mesta Blaženosť získajú nové útočisko. Éter vonku je čoraz nebezpečnejší. Ničí územia aj ľudí, vyháňa kmene z dedín, takže bojujú medzi sebou o biedne možnosti obživy. Zdá sa, že jedinou šancou pre všetkých je nájsť nové miesto na život. Aria sa ocitne v dedine kmeňa Brehárov. Jej priateľ Soky zariadi, aby dostala „značky“ – tetovanie na ramená, označujúce jej mimoriadnu schopnosť, ostrý sluch. Pri tetovaní sa ju však pokúsia otráviť. Kmeň sa rozdelí na dva tábory a tí, ktorí Ariu nenávidia, musia dedinu opustiť. Aria sa potajomky vyberie na púť za Soboľom, ktorý údajne pozná polohu Modrej tíšiny a drží v zajatí Sokyho sestru Živenu. Sprevádza ju priateľ Rev. Ich misia má šancu na úspech, nerátajú však so zákernosťou Hessa a Soboľa. Modrá tíšina má zachrániť len vyvolených! Ria s Revom však nečakane získajú mocného spojenca a kmeň i obyvatelia Blaženosti tak nestrácajú nádej na prežitie.
