They had the weapon to end the war. Would they have to use it?
JULY 1945
America has an awesome new bomb--a weapon unlike any the world has ever known. And good reason to use it.
But in Washington an urgent mission has taken shape. A mission carefully hidden from the president. A mission the Russians will do anything to intercept. A daring intelligence officer is given the most difficult assignment of his career: smuggle a team of nuclear scientists into Japan. To plead for surrender. To avert a disaster unlike any the world has ever seen. To give teh enemy fair warning.
