Spring 1945. As work on the first atomic bobm nears completion on a remote mesa in New Mexico, Karl Bruner, a Manhatten Project security officer, is found murdered in nearby Santa Fe. Is Bruner the victim of a violent sexual encounter as the local police believe, or is his death a crime that threatens to jeopardize the secret of the Project itself?

Kanon plants a murder mystery in the middle of the team of scientists building an atomic bomb in New Mexico during World War II. Historical characters such as J. Robert Oppenheimer and Gen. Leslie Groves interact with fictional characters as one man works to solve the crime. This is one of three Joseph Kanon books I can highly recommend. The others are "The Prodigal Spy" and "The Good German."
