A thriller from an alternative history world full of Tesla's inventions
The year is 1936. The streets of New York are aglow with the lights of electric cars, and magnetic levitation trains whizz by high above the road. Transformers hum on the rooftops and plasma conduits supply the city with energy.
Young reporter Jamie Collins is reluctantly dragged into an investigation that begins in hotel room 3327. It is from this suite that the world-famous inventor and visionary Nikola Tesla has disappeared. In his place, three burnt bodies lie on the floor.
It doesn't take long for Collins to realise that he is also in danger. Together with the distinctive and emancipated Lilly Kolben, he discovers that the case is more complicated than it first appeared. And things could get even worse—if a mysterious enemy gets their hands on Tesla's final invention.
Excerpt from the book
While J. P. Morgan was the past, the present entered the room without a sound. It arrived in the form of several silhouettes, whose reflections Nikola Tesla glimpsed in the glass pane. He did not turn around. He simply held his breath. One of the men silently cocked his weapon. A gunshot echoed through the corridors of the twenty-seventh floor of the New Yorker Hotel. A shower of glass shards rained down like silver rain onto the roofs of the electric cars on Eighth Avenue below.
