The Half-Life of Trust: Hanford's Secret Atomic Project Requires their Bravery- and their Ignorance
This WWII Manhattan Project novel, The Half-Life of Trust, is set in America's most toxic radioactive dump site, Hanford. My novel is a dual-point-of-view historical mystery told by Collin and Daisy.
It's 1943, Hanford, Washington State. In a mysterious government facility, where everything is classified, Daisy is determined to learn the truth: is an atomic bomb in the works? Would it wipe out humanity, as her alcoholic-yet-brilliant father says it would?
She's determined to learn for herself. Despite loving her plushy new lifestyle and falling fast for the security guard- her pacifist-bred conscience is screaming.
When Collin-the man who betrayed her-asks for her help in sabotaging the project, she must decide between morality and security.
Can two people, who can't even trust each other, be trusted to save the planet? Will her choices drive away the one she loves?
