A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur

Craig Dirgo is the best-selling author of The Einstein Papers, The Tesla Documents, and Gunnison Grit. He also co-authored several books with the masterful Clive Cussler including The Sea Hunters I and II, Golden Buddha and Sacred Stone - all New York Times best sellers. One of six children of an Air Force Colonel, Dirgo grew up on air bases in the United States and England before finally settling in Colorado. A part-time job washing and waxing classic cars led to meeting Clive Cussler, acclaimed author and founder of NUMA National Underwater and Marine Agency, a non-profit historical research foundation. When an opportunity arose to co-author a book about NUMA, Cussler asked Dirgo to take on the task. The result was the New York Times best seller, The Sea Hunters. This was followed by Clive Cussler and Dirk Pitt Revealed and The Sea Hunters II. While working with Cussler, Dirgo also began writing on his own and soon thereafter published his first John Taft adventure, The Einstein Papers. Taking some time away from ocean adventures and writing, Dirgo formed several small businesses, moved back to the mountains he loves and concentrated on skiing and hiking. In 2010-11, he skied 115 days thus achieving a lifelong goal of skiing more than 100 days in a season. In 2012 Dirgo published his first eBook novel, Gunnison Grit, a work of historical fiction set in Gunnison County, Colorado. He followed this work with re-issues in electronic format of The Einstein Papers and The Tesla Documents (originally published in paperback under the title Tremor.) Dirgo has several new projects on the drawing board, including a new John Taft action/adventure. Dirgo lives in The Rocky Mountains of Colorado.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Unified Field Theory was Albert Einstein’s crowning achievement. Einstein knew that when combined with his Theory of Relativity, a weapon could be constructed with a power to horrifying to imagine. So for over six decades the secret has remained buried–until just now. Anti-terrorism expert John Taft has seen a lot–but when an unnatural poison threatens the world’s oil supplies and the entire Middle East is brought to the edge of war, he must solve who is behind the destruction. At the same time, the Chinese recover the hidden key to Einstein’s Unified Field Theory and they will soon be able to create a device that will change the balance-of-power forever. Unless Taft can solve the mystery in the Middle East and stem the coming Chinese attack, what remains of the United States will find itself in a check-mate in the world order. In The Einstein Papers, which was first published in hardcover, Dirgo introduced his reluctant but unstoppable hero John Taft. Rewritten, tightened and with a new ending, the new edition of The Einstein Papers pits the Chinese against the Americans in a race to recover Einstein's Unified Field Theory to produce a weapon that could change the balance of power. Fast paced and with non-stop action, The Einstein Papers should appeal to thriller fans throughout the world. The Abilene-Reporter News said: "A surefire page-turner....Dirgo has created an outstanding hero in Taft." Midwest Book Review said: "A fast-paced action-thriller."
