"As the world is locked in a global war, another battle rages among brilliant scientists and ruthless spies. In 1938, on the brink of World War II, a chemist in a German laboratory makes a shocking breatkthrough: When placed next to radioactive material, a uranium atom splits in two. This simple discovery sets off a scientific race that spans three continents, launching Soviet spies, covert operations against Nazis, and a hidden lab filled with America's best minds. This is the story of the plotting, the risk-taking, the deceit, and the genius that created the world's most dangerous weapon. This is the story of the atomic bomb."--Back cover. |
