The Boy Who Played Soldier

Christopher Reed is finally on his way to belonging somewhere. As a newly hired worker for British General Snyder (or, as he likes to call him, General Snobby), he is determined to prove his worth.

But when his best friend, Gabe, snoops around the general’s headquarters, the mission takes a horribly wrong turn. Christopher is caught, and Gabe disappears with something General Snyder wants back. Christopher, needing to stay off the streets, begs for a second job—a second chance. And General Snyder has something in mind: a job that is beyond dangerous but ensures a permanent spot on the general’s staff, money, and possibly a home with the army.

The job? Spying on Colonel Haze, an important solider for the Continental Army. All Christopher has to do is not get caught.

What’s the worst that could go wrong?
