Fine. Signed and Inscibed By The Author. 5 1/2" X 8 1/2", 314 pages. In 1806 a powerful and criminal secret society has almost complete control over government-at all levels, international finance, and commerce. Its leaders arrange for a dissident to be brutally murdered and left floating in the Potomac River so that the body surfaces within clear site of Jefferson's White House. Almost 200 years later, after discovering a hidden diary written by someone who lived in the Whire House during that time, a small group of college students and a world class computer hacker learn all there is to know about this particular crime...the identity of the victim and what, if anything, Jefferson did about it? They also learn all about the secret society. By digging into this 200 year old crime the students attract the attention of the modern day version of the secret society. Under threat from the society the students decide to fight back.
