And a single line in a hand that hasn’t moved in two centuries: “For the Republic, when the Republic needs it.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Derek follows the trail — through Philadelphia archives, Revolutionary War graveyards, and a hidden tunnel beneath Valley Forge — he begins to understand what he has found: the last safeguard of the founders, buried where it would survive any catastrophe, meant only for the moment it was most needed.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Derek isn’t the only one who has been looking.
