Summary
Leading up to the Boston Tea Party, The Tea Merchant is the unexpected story of a city on the brink of revolution and the hidden threats the British East India Company brings from Bengal to the American colonies.
Boston, 1773 - The city is restless, torn between loyalty to England and a rising independent spirit. Caught uncomfortably in the middle, Constance Pruitt is the governor's cousin and a widowed tea merchant who struggles to sustain her business. Her family would prefer she relinquish any notion of liberty and settle down—preferably with a husband—but Constance turns to smuggling for the Sons of Liberty instead.
The arrival of the British East India Company suddenly endangers her future. Constance must distance herself from its officers, but they bring a mysterious housekeeper from India who may hold answers to the unexplained death of Constance's brother. Treading on a path far riskier than she had ever imagined, Constance discovers a new, grave threat to the American colonies that puts her fight for independence to the ultimate test.
