The Conjurer's Riddle by Andrea Cremer 342 pages
The Revolution is beginning and Charlotte may be on the wrong side. In
this sequel to "The Inventor's Secret," Charlotte and her companions
escape the British Empire, but they haven't left danger behind. In fact,
if they go against the revolutionaries, they face even greater peril.
Charlotte leads her group of exiles west, plunging into a wild world of
shady merchants and surly rivermen on the way to New Orleans. But as
Charlotte learns more about the revolution she has championed, she
wonders if she's on the right side after all. Charlotte and her friends
get to know the mystical New Orleans bayou and deep into the shadowy
tunnels below the city the den of criminals, assassins and pirates
Charlotte must decide if the revolution's goals justify their means, or
if some things, like the lives of her friends, are too sacred to
sacrifice. This alternate-history adventure series asks the questions:
What would have happened if America had lost the Revolutionary War? And
what would people be willing to do to finally taste freedom?
