The tale unfolds against the dramatic backdrop of the Revolutionary War and focuses on the life of the legendary Moll Pitcher, a world-renowned seer who was often referred to as the Psychic of Lynn.
Seafaring men consulted her before embarking on their journeys while British officers often visited her home in Lynn, Massachusetts asking about their fate in upcoming battles.
Pitcher portrays herself as a Loyalist when she was really a spy for General Washington, reporting back to the Sons of Liberty any information these Redcoats disclosed. A favorite of Lady Martha Washington, she warned about the battles at Lexington and Concord, as well as Bunker Hill.
Pitcher also hid munitions seized by the privateers, retrieving them when needed by the Continental Army and worked closely with her contemporaries such as General John Glover, along with her friends Fanny Campbell and William Lovell.
The excitement grows with each and every amazing prediction and thrilling sea battle!
