From the Back Cover:
"Dr. Einstein," Bill said. "It's a good thing you left since the Nazis have put a price on your head. $5,000 to kill you!" He wiped up the spill on the coffee machine.
"Yes, $5,000," Einstein repeated. He smiled gently. "I didn't know this old head was worth so much!"
"$5,000?" Aleesa squawke3d. "To....to kill you?" She took a step closer. "Why?" she asked. Who would want to kill such a famous scientist? she wondered. And he looked like a nice guy, too. His eyes looked kind.
In 1939, $5,000 would be a lot of money. Kenneth thought quickly. The Nazis must really want Einstein dead. But was he really safe here in the U.S.? Would the Nazis send a spy over here to kill him?
