During five days over Christmas in 1776 Betsy Ross delays colonel Von Donop and 2,000 Hessian forces in Mount Holly, 20 miles south of Trenton, while Washington executed a surprise post-Christmas attack.
In the first successful American undercover operation performed by a woman, with the fate of the nation in the balance, Betsy engages the colonel and prevents him from thwarting Washington's offensive.
