Hessians

It is the winter of seventeen seventy-six. The defeated remnants of George Washington’s Continental Army are retreating into the wastes of Pennsylvania while their British and Hessian enemies take up winter quarters in New Jersey. The Americans need time to rest and re-equip but supplies are scarce. There are stores hidden in the town of Wixford but the problems are that Wixford is twenty miles behind enemy lines and the supplies will only be handed over to New Jersey troops so Van Derijk's New Jersey militia is sent to fetch them and Lieutenant James Holte must accompany them with his veteran riflemen. It should be an easy task but there is a traitor in their midst and the quest for stores turns into a desperate fight for survival against the might of the Hessian army.
