During the height of the American Revolution a small group of Long Islanders banded together to form a secret espionage group known as the Culper Spy Ring. This brilliant intelligence operation helped deliver vital information to the Continental Army throughout the American Revolution. In 1780, the dream of America nearly collapsed as the British planned a surprise attack on the newly arrived French fleet in Rhode Island. Racing against the clock and fighting against insurmountable odds the everyday spies of Setauket attempt to save the French by delivering a vital message to George Washington.—Michael Tessler
