Synopsis

When Caroline learns that British spies may be lurking in Sackets Harbor, she is worried. Then, a long lost friend of Papa's shows up in town. Papa is delighted to give him a job at Abbott's Shipyard, but soon, strange things start going wrong. Caroline is sure a spy is making trouble at the yard--but is it one of Abbott's trusted workers, whom she has known all her life, or could it be Papa's dear friend? An illustrated "Looking Back" section discusses the role of spies in the War of 1812.

About this title

From the Author:

I'm excited about the 7th Caroline book, Traitor in the Shipyard. While researching and writing the first six Caroline Abbott books, I started a file of ideas for a mystery. Caroline lives right on the border between the United States and British territory during the War of 1812, and people in her town worry about traitors causing trouble. Real incidents inspired this mystery, and I hope it keeps you guessing!
