Publisher's Summary

Albert can see the future...

He just doesn't know it yet.

It is said that chess grandmasters can envision a match’s outcome 10 moves before it occurs. Imagine a person who can visualize 10 steps ahead, not simply in the game of chess, but in every human interaction.

Imagine a person who could anticipate what you would say before you said it, who could see a punch before it was thrown.

Imagine a secret that could make all of this possible.

Albert, a Princeton mathematics professor, is such a person, and as he is thrust into a murder and burglary investigation on campus he finds that the secret is buried in an obscure cipher. The discovery leads Albert to team up with an aging mentor, a curious graduate assistant, and an unusual “book club” on a frantic chase across the country to recover the secret and clear his name.

Through this adventure, he rediscovers a woman from his past and is forced to confront his own understanding of love, rationality, power, and the limits of the human mind.

The #1 best seller and BookLife Editor’s Pick

If you enjoy The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, The Extinction Trials by A.G. Riddle, Upgrade by Blake Crouch, or the Omega Factor by Steve Berry you will love this fast-paced adventure thriller.

Critic Reviews

The Tree of Knowledge is a dynamite read...reminiscent of Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code but smarter, sharper...A thrill ride with no seatbelt but what an incredible view.” (Junot Díaz, New York Times best-selling author and winner of the Pulitzer Prize)
