- Synopsis
- Fourteen-year-old Eliza Carter, her twin brother Jeremy, and their older brother Ben help out in the family business, hauling farmers' grain to market in huge Conestoga wagons. Eliza is deeply attached to Clipper, the lead horse on one of the teams. It is 1774, and tension is mounting between the King's men and the colonists in and around Philadelphia. Eliza worries that Jeremy is being drawn in by some of the local rebels. When the royal governor demands to buy one of the Carters' prized teams, Jeremy fails to deliver the horses to his mansion in Philadelphia. When Eliza sets out on Clipper to find her brother, her own loyalty is tested.
