Author Talk: The Einstein Conspiracy with Steve Israel
2026-08-19 18:30 - 20:00
Join former congressman, author, and bookseller Steve Israel on Wednesday August 19 at 6:30 pm at Scarsdale Library as he discusses his thriller novel The Einstein Conspiracy and his experiences as an independent bookseller.

New York Harbor, 1933. A passenger liner approaches Lower Manhattan and America awaits it with excitement. Renowned physicist Albert Einstein, whose genius and fame are nearly matched by his stubbornness, has fled the Nazi regime to take refuge in the United States. With the past attempts on his life now an ocean away, Einstein will teach America's best and brightest at Princeton while continuing to voice his passionate resistance against Hitler. Two FBI agents are pulled off a mob case to pursue a lead that Hitler is sending a Nazi operative to abduct the scientist and are plunged into the upside-down world of fascism festering in America. Based on actual events, The Einstein Conspiracy is a gripping historical thriller, rich with haunting reminders of a moment in American history when the line between foreign enemy and domestic threat was perilously thin.

Copies of The Einstein Conspiracy will be available for sale courtesy of Bronx River Books and for signing by the author. Light refreshments will be served.
