1957. One of the Soviet Union’s most celebrated nuclear physicists needs a new research assistant.

Alexandra Yadrova is brilliant, spirited, demanding, and very accustomed to being the smartest person in the room. A Hero of Socialist Labour, recipient of the Order of Lenin, and Nobel Prize winner in this alternate-history USSR, she has little patience for sloppy work — but considerably more enthusiasm for ambitious ideas than she likes to admit.

You have just been hired to work beside her in the rapidly changing world of early nuclear research.
