✦ Synopsis

In a New Mexico blizzard, four men cross a barbed-wire fence at Stallion Gate to select a test site for the first atomic weapon. They are Oppenheimer, the physicist; Groves, the general; Fuchs, the spy. The fourth man is Sergeant Joe Pena, a hero, informer, fighter, musician, Indian. These four men -- and a cast of soldiers, roughnecks and scientists -- will change history forever.

From the author of Gorky Park comes a novel of earth-shattering proportions. In a New Mexico blizzard, four men crossed a barbed-wire fence at Stallion Gate to select the test site for the first atomic weapon. They were Oppenheimer, the physicist, Groves, the general, Fuchs, the spy, and Sergeant Joe Pena. Four men in a covert world of soldiers and scientists, roughnecks and rougher women, all about to partake in the most important ten seconds the world has ever seen.
