Remember the Alamo—And Its Secret Treasure! What was supposed to be a week of summer fun in San Antonio, Texas, for high school seniors Ben Prescott, Porter Rockwell, and Latch McRae soon turns into another deep dive into forgotten American lore—and clues to a lost treasure! By now, it’s instinct: Ben plans. Porter charges. Latch fixes what breaks. At an auction house in San Antonio, they come across an antique powder horn from the Texas Revolution covered in strange scrimshaw symbols. These point to frontiersman and Alamo defender Jim Bowie.

High school seniors Ben Prescott, Porter Rockwell, and Latch McRae search for treasure that American history leaves behind. Ben masterminds the plan. Porter brings the guts and humor. Latch McRae supplies the gumption and tools. Now a many times great-grandson of American patriot Samuel Adams asks them to look into a new claim that the Boston Tea Party wasn’t about British tyranny and no taxation without representation, but was Sam Adams’ scheme to steal the tea and make himself rich. If Adams was a thief, America’s origin story cracks wide open.
