A select number of soldiers was chosen in advance to be George Washington's bodyguards in 1776. Washington leaned on them, trusted them. However, Washington was unaware that a few of them were involved in a treacherous scheme. These betraying soldiers, together with Mayor David Mathews and Governor William Tryon of New York, hatched a fatal scheme to assassinate the most significant military figure of all time—George Washington—in the months preceding the Revolutionary War.
This is the tale of the covert scheme and its discovery. It's a tale of jailhouse confessors, leaders, liars, and counterfeiters. It also demonstrates how difficult George Washington's battle was and how near America was to losing the Revolutionary War.
The First Conspiracy, which takes place during the most pivotal era in the history of our country, provides an amazing and hitherto untold account of American history that sheds light on George Washington's personality as well as the beginnings of the counterintelligence movement that gave rise to the CIA as we know it today.
