The year is 1779. The American Revolution is in full swing, and right now, it seems like the British army will win. New York and Philadelphia are both occupied by the British army, and with the hope of French aid still an ocean away, all seems lost to many.

However, one officer in the American army, Benjamin Tallmadge, is looking to change that. With the blessing of General George Washington, himself, he is forming a spy ring meant to supply the army with information on what is going on in New York. But, rather than staffing it with military officers, he is staffing it with a group of unprecedented people: the civilians of New York and neighboring areas. 

Enter Ophelia Stroud. She's the wife of an American soldier, and is counting down the days until he comes home. The war has been in the sleepy town she calls home for months, but still, she considers it to be more of a nuisance, one that involves her husband being gone on far off campaigns and a British soldier quartered in her home.

However, when her husband is captured and sent to the HMS Jersey for imprisonment, she finds herself looking for a way to end the war so her husband can come home. She finds it in an invite from a close family friend, and finds herself wrapped up in a game of cat-and-mouse she never could've imagined.

Shattered Realities- Historical Hamilton by C4PSL0CK
19 parts Ongoing Mature
The fifth of July has been a chaotic day for America. When Irene Laizaitė comes crashing through the White House from the sky, many people had questions- and Cassandra Carter's job is to find answers, no matter how bizarre they are. Jefferson was in his second year of retirement. The government was controlled by unfit and greedy bastards, but he promised to never get involved in politics again. He was meant to be happy, but everything seemed so meaningless and he knew not how to change that. Angie knew that Philip was up to no good when he snuck into Papa's office without his permission. She knew that she had to convince Philip to stop, before Mama found them and killed them both. George wasn't in bed yet. He was leaning on his bedroom door, listening to Mother and Lawrence argue. Of course, it was about him. Somehow, all of their stories suddenly collide and come crashing down with a certain white-eyed mathematician to blame. And the 21st century happens to be one terrifying place, especially when you're trying to hide from the government. What could possibly go wrong? --- The obligatory 'Hamilton comes to the future' fic, but I've got a somewhat of a plot figured out This is a FIRST DRAFT! This means that you'll have to deal with characterization and plot that's all over the place, so be warned. Book 2 of 2 in Historical Hamilton. You're welcome to knock yourself out with this one first, but I'd recommend you read the first book first- considering nothing will make sense without it.

This book follows an African American boy as he wonders over into the white community something not usually done. Considering that during the year 1830's New York was severely divided into pocket communities helping keep the oppressed oppressed, since they would live in cramped apartment buildings with other families while the rich lived in manors. While the immigrants worked in factories the rich turned towards investments. Matthews~ (African American) 6 years old and on the street. I watch the other children get handed bread. I watch them get taken into the homes made for children like us. My clothes are tattered and torn. I go to bed underneath boxes or in garbage cans to stay warm. Annabelle~ 20 years old, the daughter of a noble getting ready for another social event. I walk with the other women who are ahead of me. They are giggling and talking about the recent engagements, the recent social gatherings, the recent investments that potential suitors have made, yet I am simply not interested. I would rather get a job. I want to get down and dirty. Daniel~ 21 years old, a nobleman that owns quite a few acres of land for farming. Father finally died. Leaving the estate to me. I will now be able to rent out the land instead of having father put outrageous buying prices on the damn property. No one can afford them in today's day in age. Not to mention that once the property is divided up into the sectors with their own little cottages we could have our own little self-sufficient economy if I play my cards right. No, my father ever the man he was decided it was too much of a risk. Well you can roll over in your grave. I never did like him. *Warning: There may be some harsh scenes while Matthews are on the streets, and scenes that deal with death. Please be aware of this as you read. # in Historical Fiction as of: 931~ 7/14/17 302~ 7/22/17 288~ 7/24/17
