Saratoga Captive

In September 1777, while Ruth Anna's father and brother are away fighting the British, her mother is wounded defending the family farm. Ruth Anna tries to get help, but instead finds herself captured by Indians. She is ransomed as a servant to a noble German family traveling with the Redcoats. Though she is treated kindly, the twelve-year old must escape to find her father and brother. As a Saratoga Captive, she sees both sides of the Revolutionary War, and is a witness to a significant turning point in its history.
