“In a world of secrets, love is the most powerful weapon.”
Hank Marshall is a tough, square-jawed, straitlaced Army engineer and nuclear science expert, assigned to help conduct weapons testing in 1950s America. Hank has become a thorn in the side of the Army, though, for a couple of very different reasons. He is an outspoken opponent of atmospheric testing, though his superiors hold contrary views and want to squelch his concerns...and his reports. The other problem is his wife, Carly. She is voluptuous and volatile, wreaking havoc in his personal life and stirring up intrigue at each new Army base.
A simmering tension permeates this 1950s drama. It's a slow-burn exploration of marital dysfunction and the anxieties of the atomic age, set against a backdrop of military procedure and personal turmoil.
