概要
The Genius and the Tramp Fight Fascists in 1930s Hollywood.
"Ingeniously pairs real-life friends Albert Einstein and Charlie Chaplin on a roller coaster ride to save America from a fascist threat within its borders."—Jacqueline Winspear, author of the Maisie Dobbs series.
It's 1937 and clouds of war gather over Europe, and American fascists march at home. While the FBI chases suspected communists, Nazi agents plot an armed insurrection. When the world's two most famous men—Albert Einstein and Charlie Chaplin—uncover the scheme, which includes the assassination of Hollywood's biggest stars, they fight back with nothing but their ingenuity, raw courage, and the fierce resolve of Georgia Ann Robinson, LAPD's first Black female officer.
A dangerous chase takes our heroes into the heart of darkness, a fascist encampment in the San Gabriel Mountains north of Los Angeles where a militia armed with machine guns plans its attack. Batten the hatches: it's brains versus brawn in an explosive, unforgettable finale.
Praised by The New York Times for his "realistic, gritty, and fun" novels, Paul Levine delivers a wildly inventive thriller laced with humor and a larger-than-life cast, including Charles Lindbergh, Douglas Fairbanks, William Randolph Hearst, and Joseph Goebbels.

"Narrator Malcolm Hillgartner excels at portraying Charlie Chaplin and Albert Einstein as they race to thwart a Nazi terrorist plot. Set in 1930s Los Angeles, this historical thriller provides a chilling window onto America on the brink of WWII. Listeners also get to hear Hillgartner bring to life Douglas Fairbanks, Paulette Goddard, and a full complement of American and German characters. The glamorous world of Hollywood is contrasted with the harsh realities of a growing movement of American Nazi sympathizers, corrupt police, and entrenched racism and misogyny. Hillgartner sustains the tension in this engaging WWII story, which raises unsettling issues that remain relevant today."—AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award Winner
“Aside from Einstein, the genius in this book is Paul Levine, who uses real people and true events to weave an intricate thriller tapestry...to enhance a tale that has more plot turns than a spiral staircase.”—Bookreporter
“Inspired by historical events and the real-life friendship between Chaplin and Einstein, award-winning mystery writer Levine, author of the Jake Lassiter series, has carefully crafted an intriguing and in many ways timely historical thriller that immerses readers in the world of 1930s Los Angeles.”—Booklist
