About This Book

A scientist in Alsace invents a device claimed to draw a living principle from matter and to disable metals and machines, and he seeks to transfer that power to France to overturn rival nations and restore dynastic rule; his sacrifices and clandestine actions set off diplomatic maneuvering and conspiracies among embassies, claimants, and governments, transforming technological discovery into an international struggle over control of industry, military force, and political destiny.
