Sadly it did well, but it’s historically junk.

She howlingly describes her main character as a descendent of a long line of Shakers.

I’ll try to come up with a positive recommendation!

It’s a YA book, but a good story describing an episode in the colonial history of Fort Niagara, which is a site you should visit!
