Very interesting story on many levels. While the conditions endured in TN by those working on a part of the creation of the atom bomb are prominent in this story, so are the social, economic, racial, ethnic, and sexism a large part of the story. People, many women, thrown together away from home for the first time into a "loose lips sinks ships" world and many having no idea what they were working on but only for the war effort and helping to save American lives. Some taking advantage of the opportunity to better themselves marrying up, recreating themselves, making money for the first time, or learning new skills. Interesting novel for this part of WWII history.
