"Hedbor writes his novels as events that occur alongside the Revolution, putting the spotlight on ordinary people and in the process giving us an authentic glimpse into what life was like for those such as ourselves." Lisl Zlitini, before the second sleep book reviews "With a commanding grasp of history, Hedbor deftly weaves a fascinating tale of the early days of America's road to independence. Hedbor is a brilliant storyteller, especially with the way that he is able to bring history alive... He has a gift for capturing the vernacular of the period and making his characters come alive."
