Pursuit

Set at the brink of the Revolutionary War, this is a thrilling novel set on twists and turns.
Verity is a fifteen girl, daughter of wealthy parents. She longs for independence, mirroring the colony in which she lives. She and her best friend, a mischievous and smart sixteen year old boy named Sander grow close as Sander teaches her how to ride some of his parents horses. But as they are riding one night, Verity and Sander discover a secret that could bring disaster to the colony of Williamsburg's people: perhaps a spy for the British. But that's not all; a midnight prowler has been spotted near Verity's parents' estate- and Verity and Sander are determined to uncover all the secrets- no matter how deadly they turn out to be.
