The Dark Trail

Revolutionary Treasure Hunt! Fueled by mystery, grit, glory, and sandwiches, three modern-day teens uncover America’s history and forgotten treasures one adventure at a time. The hunters are Ben Prescott, 18—The researcher, the mystic, the trailblazer. Porter Rockwell, 17—The man of action, the social glue. And Latch McRae, 17—The mechanic, the gear man, the straight-shooter. Now a descendant of American patriot Samuel Adams asks them to look into a claim that the Boston Tea Party was not to oppose British tyranny, but Sam Adams’ scheme to steal the tea and make himself rich. The hunters head to Boston, where clues point to a colonial rebel at the Boston Tea Party who was not busy tossing tea into the harbor, but searching for the hidden key to a fortune. Following clues and cracking ciphers, the hunters unearth a conspiracy that stretches from the Bengal court of old India to a human skeleton at the bottom of a well that may hold a clue that clears Samuel Adams’ name.
