But security shows no evidence of him entering the tunnel. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Science, love, greed, and betrayal collide in a tense read that never loses its deliciously eerie edge\" (Janice Hallett, author of \u003ci\u003eThe Appeal\u003c\/i\u003e) as Sabine digs into petty academic rivalries and personal secrets. At the same time, an escalating international physics arms race heightens tensions and fuels speculation of a mole at the lab--throwing loyalties into question and revealing what sort of knowledge may be worth killing for.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atria Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/11\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781668018552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 5.31w x 0.80d","brand":"Nova Jacobs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44916279115957,"sku":"9781668018552","price":16.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_491fca50-da77-41ca-902c-bd9bf8b15753.jpg?v=1734449749","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-stars-turned-inside-out-9781668018552","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
