Dylan Townsend stands on the beach watching commercial jets fall out of the sky like oak leaves twirling in the wind. A wing shears off the one closest to the shore just before it splashes down in the sea. Why was she telling him this outlandish story? What sort of tourist agency would offer people a front row seat to the end of the world? More importantly, why would anyone book such a vacation if there wasn't any way home afterward?

What if you found a way to send something back in time? But not weeks, days, or even minutes back. What if you could only send something back a fraction of a second? Would this be of any use? You wouldn't have nearly enough time to right a wrong, change an event, or win a lottery. Nathan Wexler is a brilliant physicist who thinks he's found a way to send matter a split second back into the past. But before he can even confirm his findings, he and his wife-to-be, Jenna Morrison, find themselves in a battle for their very lives.

Publisher's Summary
Finalist, Science Fiction Novels, 2016 Best Book Awards
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.
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.
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.
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.
Until history chooses this moment to deliver him one more clue. A clue that leads him to an impossible and unbelievable discovery: time travel.
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.

Time travel is messy, this story... not so much
What I find in many stories of time travel is a messy mash up while trying to convey to the reader, or.... in this case, the listener.
I was thoroughly pleased with this audiobook.... so much so that I listened to it straight through.
In keeping with MY personal wants... the Narrator pleased me even more. There are only a few voices that hold my attention as deep as his and I shall seek out more books read by him.
The story itself is a delight to follow.... especially for a man like me in his late 50’s and having grown up in Pennsylvania, and having knowledge of the Pennsylvania Turnpike and the Service Plazas... of which we referred to as “Ho Jo”, short for Howard Johnson’s. For this I applaud the author for this and many other facts that were pertinent to the era of the 50’s. I may have grown up in the 60’s but my knowledge of the area is extensive.... so it helped me to enjoy it more.
I have always been intrigued by time travel and Einstein.. I may not be a mathematician like him but you don’t need to be one to enjoy this book...in any format.
Step thru the wormhole.. and see what’s on the other side...
