I've always been intrigued by the tunnels underneath NYC.. And, this book adds all of the elements one desires in a sleuthing novel of mystery! The characters are very well developed.. and one is snared into the story from the first paragraph!The story centers on a very well to do millionaire who was suddenly struck down with a fear of being outside.. and had the means to live in one of the rare homes that were built underneath the streets of NYC at the turn of the last century. While out jogging he comes upon a fellow acting most strangely.. busting down a wall.. that leads to President FDR's Presidential railroad car.. Not wanting to put out spoilers.. just know.. that the novel will keep you reading until you get to the last juicy word. Well paced.. all of the action is very well described.. and you will truly find yourself rooting for the good guy and hoping the bad guys really get what they deserve!I find it interesting that the main character seems to have the same mind as his distant relative.. YES! Nicola Tesla! Rebecca Cantrell vividly describes the mind thought.. and how a mathematical type mind will sometimes see everything in their world in a mathematical fashion.. or equate it to colors.Prepare to stay up all night... this is one of "those" books! You just won't be able to put it down.. until you've finished it!
