Einstein's Secret

<div><b>Finalist, Best Science Fiction Novel, 2016 American Book Fest</b><br /><br />It's 1955, and Albert Einstein lies in a hospital bed, deathly ill. He suddenly stirs, asks his assistant for paper and pen, then scribbles something down. Minutes later, he dies.<br /><br />History tells us that Einstein jotted down equations that night. But struggling scholar Jacob Morgan believes that history is wrong. He's convinced that Einstein wrote a deathbed confession that night--a secret that the great scientist didn't want to take to his grave.<br /><br />Jacob has spent his entire adult life obsessively hunting down that secret--with nothing to show for it but the scorn of his colleagues and the tattered remnants of a once-promising teaching career.<br /><br />But now, thanks to a lucky break, Jacob has a chance to get his life back on track. His appointment as an adjunct professor at the University of Virginia is a fresh start, and he's vowed to end his pursuit of Einstein's secret.<br /><br />Until history chooses this moment to deliver him one more clue. A clue that leads him to an impossible and unbelievable discovery:<br /><br />Time travel.<br /><br />And so begins the last leg of Jacob's desperate quest, one where history is not only changeable--it's changing. All by itself. And if Jacob doesn't rescue Einstein's secret, everything that he's ever known will disappear forever.</div>
