After the two atomic bomb tests at Bikini, Jake is asked to join Bartoli at Los Alamos in his Magic Numbers project, trying to develop a new type of nuclear weapon. Bart's beautiful wife Hajnalka and their daughter Ilona, arouse Jake's romantic fantasies. He becomes enmeshed in a web of personal and scientific relationships, murder and espionage. Jake is faced in the end with a dilemma that only he can resolve, a crucial decision about the future of world peace and nuclear warfare. If you love History and Mystery, this book is a must-read. .
