Summary, etc.:
A haunting work of narrative non-fiction about a young woman growing up in a small Colorado town close to Rocky Flats, a secret nuclear weapons plant once designated 'the most contaminated site in America.' It's the story of growing up in the shadow of the Cold War, in a landscape at once startlingly beautiful and, unknown to those who lived there, tainted with invisible yet deadly particles of plutonium.
