Locked away for over a century, this machine holds an alluring secret.

After remaining sealed for generations, a hidden room is discovered in the basement of the famed Biltmore Estate. Within the musty, decaying confines of the hidden room, a large mechanical machine comes to light. Crafted with intricate gears, levers, and sophisticated mechanisms, the contraption is hailed as a significant archaeological discovery. The esteemed board of directors overseeing the operations of the Biltmore Estate enlists the expertise of Professor Dr. Daniel Garrison to unravel the purpose and origin of this enigmatic machine.

While Dr. Garrison investigates, readers are transported back to the year 1906, when George Vanderbilt II commissions an inventor to construct this mysterious apparatus. What secrets lie within this machine? Why was it brought into existence?

This compelling tale unfolds across intertwining narratives-the investigation of the machine in the present day and its creation back in 1906-to deliver a captivating and riveting ending.

Reviews for The Machine in the Biltmore

"“Beneath the Estate is an entertaining and cleverly plotted mystery. The reader is immediately engrossed in a story about two similar occurrences with similar characters taking place about 100 years apart. As the novel advances, the suspense builds evermore so, because the present is trying to replicate the past. A mysterious machine, attributed to Leonardo DaVinci, has been discovered in a hidden room, which has been closed off for a century. But what exactly is this machine, who is it for, what will it do? Brown skillfully blends the lifetimes and the characters as they seemingly intersect and eventually coincide to give the reader a beautiful sense of closure. This mystery is heartfelt and builds to a perfect ending.” —Ray Anderson, author of Lift and the AWOL thriller series ""With Beneath the Estate, Nick Allen Brown has given us a fascinating story told through dual timelines: 1906-07 and the present. In one, the mysterious machine is being constructed, and in the other, discovered and studied. In both the past and the present, this is a tale about love and redemption, leading to the rebirth of old magic in our new world. It will take you back to the Biltmore Estate again and again.” —Terry Roberts, author of The Sky Club and The Devil Hath a Pleasing Shape ""An engaging, and exciting read. Really wonderful!” —Susan Steen, The Portland Sun"
