What if artificial intelligence could send a book back in time - and change everything? The Lost Encyclopedia is a thrilling historical fiction adventure set against the backdrop of the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. When a delivery drone accidentally transports a copy of the 1990 Random House Encyclopedia to the beginning of the last century, an ordinary bank clerk named Willie Craine discovers he holds the key to the future. Willie exploits his newfound knowledge for profit through high-stakes bets - but his winnings attract dangerous attention from mobsters, hitmen, and the FBI. When Willie goes missing after a brutal gang-related murder claims his son and daughter-in-law, his orphaned grandson Angelo is left with little more than questions and a mysterious old encyclopedia. Determined to find his grandfather, Angelo and his best friend Owen dig through clues that lead them into a world of deceit, vengeance, and deadly adventure - crossing paths with sinister figures known only as Cowboy and Little Sue. The first words they should have looked up in the encyclopedia were Death, Vengeance, Deceit, and Murder. A fast-paced, twist-filled adventure that blends historical fiction, mystery, and thrills - readers say they simply could not put it down.
