If one of two entangled particles passes the event horizon of a black hole, will the entanglement still exist? Because that would mean information can come from a black hole.

Can you recommend me a good book about quantum physics and maybe entanglement in particular?
I'm a M.D., who may have a good brain, but my physics is high school level.
Entanglement is a phenomenon in quantum mechanics where two or more particles become connected in such a way that the state of one particle is dependent on the state of the other, even if they are separated by large distances.
Entanglement occurs when two particles interact with each other and then become separated. This interaction causes the particles to become "entangled" and share a quantum state. This means that any changes to one particle will affect the other, no matter how far apart they are.
An event horizon is a boundary in space around a black hole where the gravitational pull is so strong that nothing, including light, can escape. It is the point of no return for anything that gets too close to a black hole.
There is a theory that suggests that particles that fall into a black hole become entangled with the particles inside the event horizon. This means that any changes to one particle inside the black hole will affect the other particle outside the black hole, even though they are separated by the event horizon.
The relationship between entanglement and event horizon is still a topic of research and debate in the scientific community. It has the potential to shed light on the mysteries of black holes and the behavior of particles in extreme conditions. Understanding this relationship could also have implications for quantum computing and communication technologies.
