About this audiobook
In 1777, during the War for Independence, Nate Donovan is the younger brother in an Irish Quaker family in British-occupied Philadelphia. He is too young to join the Continental Army that is fighting for America's freedom, but when the war comes through the Donovan's front door, Nate becomes the youngest member of General George Washington's spy network. Dangerous? If Nate and his Indian friend, Running Fox, are caught as spies the penalty is death by hanging.

Reviews for Nate Donovan
4 ratings1 review
- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Inane YA historical fiction with a Christian bent. After reading three quarters of this book, I had to give up. The story is chock-full of poorly drawn characters, and the writing is poor (it took 3 authors to do this?). The lead character of Nate Donovan is not so much a hero as an impetuous teen with good luck - or maybe he's blessed.
