ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
In 1963, Franco’s regime launched a secret operation to develop an atomic bomb in Spain. The details have remained hidden for the last six decades. Until now.
By the author of The Great Blackout, War 3, and The Signature of God.
A shocking detective thriller that plunges into one of the littlest known episodes in Spanish history—the development of the atomic bomb, Project Islero.
In 1986, Alba Orbe mysteriously disappears in Madrid. She was five years old. Thirty-three years later, she reappears in the Sahara Desert, traumatized and refusing to utter a single word.
Tirso de la Fuente, linguist advisor to the Police, will get involved in the case, but soon will uncover a complex plot behind the woman’s disappearance. In the 1960’s, Alba’s father participated in the most-secret project of Franco’s Government, silenced under the Official Secrets Act with one single objective: to make an atomic bomb.
