Description
The secret city held a deadly secret. There was no tolerance for talkers here, and those found guilty of leaking anything about the work the women were doing or the city were promptly evicted. Meet the women who, during World War II, lived in a town full of secrets as they enriched uranium for the atomic bomb that would soon be dropped on Hiroshima.
