But security shows no evidence of him entering the tunnel, and for all of the lab’s funding, its video surveillance is sorely lacking.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eEager to keep the death under wraps until more is known, CERN brings in private investigator Sabine Leroux, who has her own ties to the lab’s administration—and more than a passing interest in particle physics. Meanwhile, Howard’s colleague and budding love interest Eve, shattered by his death, determines to reconcile what she knew of Howard with his gruesome fate, wondering if she could have done something to stop it.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAs Sabine digs into petty academic rivalries and personal secrets, an escalating international physics arms race heightens tensions and fuels speculation of a mole at the lab—throwing into question loyalties and revealing what sort of knowledge may be worth killing for.","brand":"Nova Jacobs","offers":[{"title":"Atria Books |  Hardback  |  2024-03-19","offer_id":44663082582271,"sku":"9781668018545","price":36.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/files\/BNCImageAPI_69a0353e-b46c-4b96-b6ba-bf0b105633bf.jpg?v=1704532040","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9781668018545","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
