Beecher White is a young archivist who spends his days working with the most important documents of the U.S. government. When Clementine Kaye, his first childhood crush, shows up at the Archives asking for help tracking down her long-lost father, Beecher tries to impress her by showing her the secret vault where the President of the United States privately reviews classified documents. It is also where Beecher and Clementine accidently happen upon a priceless artifact--a 200-year-old dictionary that once belonged to George Washington--hidden underneath a desk chair. Eager to discover why the president is hiding this important national treasure, the two soon find themselves entangled in a web of deception, conspiracy, and murder whose insidious roots trace back to the founding of the nation.--From publisher description.
