Book Review: The Einstein Pursuit by Chris Kuzneski

It starts with an explosion in a research facility in Stokholm, where 20 scientists, once the brightest minds of their generation are killed, sending Sahlberg, a Swedish scientist living in America to reach out to the son of a previous employer, Jonothan Payne, asking for protection from those he believes are responsible for the attack. 

Payne agrees to meet Sahlberg, having never met the man himself, on the possibility of getting to know more of his late father's mysterious past. Arriving at the meeting, Payne and Sahlberg are attacked, so Payne reaches out to David Jones, best friend and ex-military officer, telling him to come ready for battle.

After the initial battle is won, Payne and Jones reconnect with old sources and friends to get answers about why the scientists were targeted, while the man looking to abduct Sahlberg is getting closer to them.

This book is pure thrill ride, non-stop action with some comedy throw in the mix to keep the reader involved. Kuzneski is in his stride within the genre and the reader trusts that he will have them guessing till the end.

Rating: 4/5
