It is a world turned upside down...a world created when a future time traveler re-directs the course of World War II. The United States has suffered six decades of oppressive fascist rule. Now, while a decimated band of expatriate American rebels fight to liberate their country, international dissension threatens a nuclear holocaust. Tony Shane--a rebel with a dangerous, incredible plan--has inherited wartime secrets that might free his country: a plan derived from Albert Einstein--whose cryptic legacy conceals an improbable time travel strategy. To unravel the secrets of "Einstein's tunnel," Shane persuades Sarah Stenstrom--a beautiful young scientist in a Nazi cyber-research laboratory--to join his cause. But their intimate relationship soon threatens the entire mission. Vito Mironi--a powerful mob boss within a corrupt Nazi regime--secretly supports the rebels. But the reality of Einstein's plan soon converts Mironi into Shane's most dangerous adversary. Joining Shane's desperate odyssey is a ruthless rebel assassin, Salomé, with a burning personal agenda. But only Nathan Carothers--charismatic rebel leader--knows the true dark purpose underlying their mission. Confronted by surprising obstacles, Tony Shane traverses a perilous path--while racing a deadly doomsday clock--to fulfill the promise of Einstein's Tunnel.
