Mr. Abernathy

In 1944, Willy Horvitz was a brilliant young physicist, coerced into leading a Nazi research effort to design a revolutionary new weapon. Haunted throughout his life by the tragic loss of his mother, Willy hoped the loss wouldn't be repeated if the personal secrets of those he held dear were revealed. In 2008, Parker Dundee is a brilliant young professor. Sifting through the possessions of his recently deceased father, he discovers the man was more than a mid-level State Department bureaucrat. The deeper Parker gets into the labyrinth of his father's work, the more attention he draws from sinister quarters. Tying them together is the elusive "Abernathy"; a name known only through enigmatic references in scattered documents. His identity and secrets are of high interest to the CIA, Russian thugs, and a strange band of men known only as The Joneses. Determined to know who his father really was, Parker must first try to solve a larger and more dangerous puzzle: who was Mr. Abernathy?
