"In 1868 Bekah Benson travels from England to Londonderry, N.H., to find the other half of a mysterious medallion she's had for years. The medallion belonged to her missionary parents, and Bekah believes it holds the secret to the location of a treasure. In a wild coincidence, Bekah happens across the missing half of her medallion, but it's hanging around the neck of Zachariah Thompson, a cardsharp who moments before they first meet was sentenced to death for killing a man. (Zachariah claims he is innocent.) Zachariah agrees to give her his half of the medallion if she'll break him out of jail. With a little help from a sticky-fingered street urchin, Bekah springs Zachariah from the hoosegow." . "Fiction" . . "1600 - 1775" . . "Massachusetts" . .
