HMTC Book Club September 13 - Hannah's War by Jan Eliasberg (on Zoom)

Berlin in 1938 was no place for a woman of science, especially a Jewish woman on the verge of discovering how to split the atom.  But in 1945, having escaped to the U.S. and secured a job working with Robert Oppenheimer in his top-secret nuclear lab in Los Alamos, she is accused of leaking encoded equations to Hitler’s scientists.  How will she defend herself, and how will her accuser, a man who arrived wounded and battered from the liberation of Paris, discover the truth?
