Eleven-year-old Dewey Kerrigan is on her way to live with her father, who's working on a government project for the war, in a place that doesn't officially exist. When she gets there, she discovers that everything in Los Alamos is top-secret - especially the mysterious 'gadget' her father is building with other top mathematicians and scientists. Dewey is happy to experiment by herself, taking machines apart and inventing new ones. But one girl just won't leave her alone - Suze Gordon, a budding artist who's as much a misfit as Dewey. When the two of them have to join forces, neither of them likes it. But together, they start to discover just how much the gadget will change everything - the war, their families, and their future.
Grade Level: 3-7
