The Einstein vendetta : Hitler, Mussolini and a true story of murder

Harding, Thomas, 1968-2025
Books
Italy, Summer 1944 A unit of German soldiers arrives at a villa near Florence. Villa Il Focardo is home to Robert Einstein, cousin to the most famous scientist in the world, Albert Einstein - a prominent enemy of the Nazi regime. Having renounced his German citizenship a decade earlier, Albert's safely in America, well beyond Hitler's reach. The same is not true for his cousin. Twelve hours after arriving, the soldiers have vanished - and a family is dead. This crime - and what happened next - still haunts those who survived. Who ordered it? Who was involved? And why did they get away with it? This is the untold story of the Einstein vendetta.
