    Prudence Wright "The Price of Liberty"

    Before America secured its independence, one woman discovered that the greatest battles are sometimes fought against those closest to home. As revolution spreads across the colonies, Prudence Cummings Wright finds herself caught between divided loyalties. While her husband answers the call of the Patriot cause, her own brothers remain faithful to the British Crown. But when word reaches Pepperell, Massachusetts, that a Loyalist courier carries intelligence that could threaten the fight for liberty, Prudence refuses to stand by. Rallying the women of her community into the "Guardians of Liberty," she transforms ordinary wives, mothers, and daughters into an organized force of courage, vigilance, and resistance. Set against the opening days of the American Revolution, Prudence Wright: The Price of Liberty is a gripping cinematic audio drama of faith, sacrifice, impossible choices, and the remarkable women who proved that the defense of freedom extended far beyond the battlefield. On a moonlit night at Jewett Bridge, Prudence and her militia make a stand that would become one of the earliest acts of organized female resistance in American history.
