OH MY GOSH! Yesterday morning I told my oldest baby basset that ever since he started seeing a new girl he has been spending too much money going out for coffee and eating out. I said we need to sit down and have a discussion about his spending when he got home from school. It was probably one of the most adult things I have ever done. Not sure I like it. Anywhoo… He called me that afternoon and said that he had just applied for a job at the coffee shop he had been frequenting, and if he gets the job he can get free coffee. This kid is brilliant! What a fantastic way to avoid an adult conversation. Ya sure, I will still need to sit down with him and made a plan and budget, bla bla bla. But for now adulting has been avoided. SHWEET!

“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” Thomas Jefferson 1787.

The 4th of July 1826. As Thomas Jefferson lies dying, he gives his part of his Jefferson Cipher to Edgar Allen Poe, with instructions to take the disks to West Point. In Massachusetts, John Adams entrusts his part of the Cipher to Colonel Thayer, the superintendent of the Military Academy. As Thayer rides away, Adams utters his final words: “Thomas Jefferson survives.”

In the present, Green Beret Paul Ducharme has been recalled from Afghanistan after the ‘accidental’ death of his best friend, the son of one of the Philosophers. While Ducharme is visiting his friend’s gravesite in Arlington, an old man is executed by a member from the Society of Cincinnati known as the Surgeon, who is seeking to gather all the pieces of the cipher.

In a nearby restaurant, former CIA and now Curator at Monticello, Evie Tolliver, waits anxiously for her mentor to arrive, but he’s killed by the same assassin at the Zero Milestone. His heart and the Philosopher’s head are displayed as a grisly message on top of the stone, echoing Jefferson’s famous head-heart letter.

Ducharme and Tolliver, the unknowing heirs to become the next generation of caretakers of the Jefferson Allegiance, team up and must battle the Surgeon to assemble the Cipher and find the Jefferson Allegiance, a document that has kept the balance of power in the United States for over two centuries.
