“Looks like an ordinary guy,” Jamie said. “Ordinary, with dark-rimmed glasses.”
“Maybe he’s a librarian. No! Wait! He’s the guy we saw on TV. He’s the guy that wants Congress to resign.”
“I believe you’re right. What’s on your mind?” he asked, as the man came within six feet of him and stopped.
“Uh, I came to talk with you.” He looked at Jamie, then turned to Angie. “I know both of you. You’re Angie,” he said, then turned. “And you’re Jamie.”
“What else you got?”
“I know you from the firefight you and Angie had down in front of the monument. … I saw you chase that guy into the monument. Only you came out.” He stopped long enough to search their faces. “So I got your license plate number. As soon as I got home, I tapped into the Transportation Division’s database at General Services Administration.” He looked at them again. “That’s where I got your name.”
“You hacked in,” Jamie said, correcting him.
“Man, that’s such a nasty word, but anyway, I got your names. Then I tapped, uh, hacked into the CIA’s database and got your address. So, here I am.”
Jamie looked at Angie, then turned back to the man. “Well, you’re good. We think we saw you on TV yesterday … down in Richmond. Your name’s Ben …”
“Ben. Ben Jefferson.”

When the man shows up at their doorstep a few days later asking for protection, they realize it is their duty as Americans to help him.
His name is Ben Jefferson, and he has a plan to restore the United States to its former glory. He is organizing a protest in which millions of patriots will descend upon the U.S. Capitol to demand that Congress resign.
But those in power will do everything they can to stop the march. Because of his incendiary message, Ben’s life is in constant peril. The fate of the nation may depend on whether Jamie and Angie can protect Ben from his powerful enemies. The events that unfold will forever alter the course of history.
