Even though JB promised there would be no more time travel, Jonah and Katherine have hurtled back to 1903 – where Albert Einstein has become a major player in the space-time continuum.  The pair must stop him from working on his theories, but there is someone much more important to the history of the world – Einstein’s wife.  Mileva is the key to everything, and she is in control.  Until she makes her choices, the entire world is on freeze frame.  

YES!  This one was awesome!!  Forget paradoxes and time conflicts; this edition is pure genius that happens to be pretty awesome time travel too.  I think I caught a hint of another book -  because Jonah still doesn’t know his own history.
