About Dante's equation

During World War II, Rabbi Yosef Kobinski, a Kabbalist mystic and brilliant physicist, mysteriously vanished from the death camp at Auschwitz, leaving behind a manuscript in which he outlined his apparent discovery of an actual physical law of good and evil. Decades later, Rabbi Aharon Handalman, an expert on Torah code, rearrangeds words and letters in the Bible and makes a startling discovery: Kobinski's name—and a dire warning—inexplicably hidden in the sacred text. Meanwhile, in Seattle, scientist Jill Talcott has unknowingly reproduced Kobinski's work—experiments that are frightening in their implications. Now Jill, Aharon, and a journalist on the trail of Kobinski's story are in a race for the coveted manuscript, with shadowy agents in hot pursuit. Desperate to solve the astonishing riddle, the investigators follow the clues to Poland, embarking upon an unearthly journey that crosses the line between science and the divine—and between space and time.
