The Ravenmaster's Secret
| Book Talk: Eleven year old Forrest lives at the Tower of London, which in 1735 has a jail and execution grounds. His job is to help his father, the Ravenmaster, take food to the prisoners and tend the Tower birds. However, when their newest prisoner turns out to be the young daughter of a Scottish rebel, Forrest begins to question the terrible things he's always heard about Scots. He befriends Maddy, and when her father and uncle are murdered trying to escape, he swears to help her escape, despite an inevitable treason conviction if he's caught. (Booktalks Quick and Simple)
