Publisher's Synopsis
When a colleague challenges Tobias to unveil the hidden history of the American Revolution, he recreates the story from an antique necklace. Holding the necklace in his hand as if taking the pulse of one of his patients, he gleans a description of the final owner. Tobias, a naturopathic physician practicing in the Pacific Northwest, confers with several experts from various disciplines such as computer science, osteopathy, astrophysics, and geology. They agree that the final owner was the one who fired the fateful shot at Lexington-Concord, which echoes timelessly in a poem by Ralph Waldo Emerson. The necklace resonates with the sound heard 'round the world, because it marked the beginning of the American Revolution. A small blue sunstone in the center of the piece indicates that the owners were skilled in astral projections. Looking into the sunstone center of the necklace, Tobias and his colleagues agree that final wearer of the necklace was a woman, who inherited the necklace from an older brother. It had been passed through five generations of men before it became hers. Hindu inscriptions on the bronze-like amulet suggest that the owners were special knights, guarding the most special trade route on the planet, the Silk Road. Tobias names the final owner, Susan. He wants to know her scheme in the revolution. Why was her shot the most significant of all previous confrontations on the continent? In his investigation, Tobias learns how Susan made the American Revolution legitimate, and why she fired the shot that resulted in the end of her life. The story of the shot at the Battle of Lexington-Concord begins with a 1769 time wrinkle in India. It cuts across the dimensions of life and death into the realm of spirit. The story describes the intergalactic wars and the fight to save the spirit of the planet, hidden by Bilbo and a Blue Fairy in the Mid Earth. Eagle's Flight in the American Revolution portrays the actions that led to the Spirit of 1776.
