Description
A Boston Hunt for Revolutionary Treasure
High school seniors Ben Prescott, Porter Rockwell, and Latch McRae search for treasure that American history leaves behind. Ben masterminds the plan. Porter brings the guts and humor. Latch McRae supplies the gumption and tools.
Now a many times great-grandson of American patriot Samuel Adams asks them to look into a new claim that the Boston Tea Party wasn't about British tyranny and no taxation without representation, but was Sam Adams' scheme to steal the tea and make himself rich. If Adams was a thief, America's origin story cracks wide open.
The hunters head to Boston, where it's not long before clues point them toward a historic treasure trove. It seems that one colonial rebel in the Boston Tea Party was not busy tossing tea into the harbor, but actually searching for the hidden key to a fortune that would make him filthy rich.
The trio isn't the only group on the hunt, and they find themselves tracked by a dangerous and shady gang who are after the same loot. Following clues and cracking cyphers, the hunters unearth a conspiracy that stretches from the Bengal court of old India, dripping with diamonds, rubies, and emeralds, to a shadowy Freemason lodge in present-day New England where a human skeleton found at the bottom of a well may hold a clue that not only clears Samuel Adams' name, but reveals the location of a fabulous hoard of treasure previously lost to history.
