The First Conspiracy tells a remarkable and previously untold piece of American history that not only reveals George Washington’s character, but also illuminates the origins of America’s counterintelligence movement that led to the modern day CIA.

Set in the turbulent months of 1776 after George Washington is given command of the Continental army and before the British army arrives in the colonies to put down the rebellion, this fascinating book tells the tale of dastardly plots, treason and the beginnings of the Intelligence service.

Brad Meltzer and co-author Josh Mensch have created a history book, which shows just how hard the battle was for George Washington — and how close America was to losing the Revolutionary War.

“While the story itself is compelling and dramatic enough, Meltzer’s buid-up to the conspiracy is really what makes this book so enjoyable,” a review commented on goodreads.com.

Raised in Brooklyn and Miami, Meltzer is a graduate of the University of Michigan and Columbia Law School. 

The Tenth Justice was his first published work and became an instant New York Times bestseller.
