When Nikola Tesla died alone in a New York hotel room in 1943, it should have marked the quiet end of an eccentric genius. Instead, it triggered a shadowy race to seize his papers — blueprints and notebooks that some believed contained the power to reshape, or destroy, the world.

Within hours, federal agents had confiscated every scrap of Tesla's research. Official statements claimed there was "nothing of practical value," yet critical files vanished, archives were sealed, and pages remain redacted to this day. Why?

*The Lost Blueprints* delves into the unsettling mystery surrounding Tesla's missing work. From secret War Department investigations and J. Edgar Hoover's watchful FBI, to modern Freedom of Information requests that still meet blank pages, this book traces a web of secrecy that lingers more than 80 years later.

Was Tesla simply a dreamer chasing impossible ideas — or did he glimpse something so disruptive it remains locked away, out of public reach?

A chilling true story of genius, ambition, and the quiet places where history's greatest mysteries are buried.
