Einsteinovo proroctví – Masello Robert (2019)

Art historian Lucas Athan, currently an officer in the American army tasked with saving cultural monuments looted by Nazi Germany, discovers an Egyptian sarcophagus in a secret warehouse in the heart of Germany towards the end of the war. This sarcophagus is of great interest to both the closest circles around Adolf Hitler and the American secret service. Even during its discovery, a tragic event occurs, and after its transport to Princeton University, where Athan is set to examine it alongside the charming and exceptionally educated Anglo-Egyptian art historian Simona Rashid, the frequency of mysterious deaths sharply increases. The events surrounding the sarcophagus also involve physicist Albert Einstein and mathematician Kurt Gödel, who are working in Princeton at the time. Will Athan and the secret services be able to stop the dark forces whose aim seems to be even Einstein himself? What could ancient forces of evil have in common with modern physics? In this briskly written novel by bestselling author Robert Masello, elements of espionage, modern science, and supernatural forces intertwine – and it also offers intriguing insights into the lives of both geniuses and a touching love story.
