The Tesla Connection: A Documentary Investigation
By Steven Knight
Length2h 21m
About this audiobook
When Nikola Tesla died in 1943, the FBI seized his papers within hours. The evaluator they chose: John G. Trump — uncle of a future president. Decades later, Elon Musk names his company after Tesla and builds the impossible.
As a former CIA analyst, I followed the evidence. What I found was more surprising than the conspiracy: a case study in how compelling narratives seduce even trained investigators — and what it means to follow the truth wherever it leads.
The Tesla Connection is the complete record of an investigation that changed how I work.
