Description
Darren Mathews, a loving father married to his soulmate, Anna Mathews, are both devoted parents, living with their daughter, Dana, on a small island off the coast of Florida. They seem to have the perfect family life, but they are hiding a dangerous secret: they both work for the Orange Corporation, an umbrella company of the CIA controlled by the shadow government. From aliens to giants, they have seen all that the Hidden Hand has kept from the world. Almost.
When a routine recovery mission puts Darren face-to-face with original Tesla documents, he makes an impulsive decision which will alter the course of not only his own fate but the fates of his wife and daughter forever. What will Darren do with the Tesla notes and diagrams? Will the shadow government discover what he has done? And will Anna turn her husband over to the Hidden Hand, or will she stick with him for better or worse—until death do them part?
Advance Praise
This is a very intriguing story involving characters that I can easily identify with and I became totally engrossed in this story. Based on what I see on Amazon, I have many more books to read that are similar involving what appears to be historic people/events. I loved it and cannot wait to read more.

The author spun the storyline around two plausible scenarios: 1) religion's role to ensure their reputation remained untarnished and 2) the safety and protection of massive fortunes. It's the same old story, but with a new twist. The narrative did not attend to, so much, to the pioneering efforts of Tesla, but rather the powers-that-be: the individuals, groups and organizations - the shakers of the world.
The main protagonist, Darren, a former S.A.S. agent was a pawn in a deadly game of espionage. Taken to the highest levels, the safeguarding of worldly secrets and assets came first above all else; science be damned.
I offer my thanks to NetGalley and BookGoSocial for the collaboration of this ARC in exchange for an unbiased review.

The story has an intriguing and thought-provoking plot. Written with enough detail that you are engaged as a reader but not so much as to be bogged down with detail. Also, the characters have been developed enough to be believable and realistic.
Overall a good enjoyable read

I really enjoyed this book. It was short but entertaining. Not too much detail but enough to make it believable. I would have preferred some more detail on what happened at the end as I find it ended abruptly without a great deal of explanation.
On the whole I would definitely recommend this author and book.
Account D, Reviewer
this was a great mystery novel, it had the elements that I was looking for in this type of book. The characters were well developed and I enjoyed reading this book.
Carolyn M, Reviewer
An overall fascinating book, perfect for the conspiracy theory enthusiast who enjoys a good mystery. There is a bit of time-hopping that takes some getting used to, but the inclusion of Tesla into the storyline made it intriguing enough to stick with it.
Very glad I was approved for an ARC by NetGalley and the publisher!
