Deception at Los Alamos

At the beginning of World War II, Germany and America were in a race to develop the atomic bomb. The clear prize was European domination. For reasons of security, at the end of 1942, the Americans moved their nuclear weapons research and development program to a barren, rocky New Mexico plateau called Los Alamos. Suddenly, Adolf Hitler realized he was going to come in second place in a race that had no second place. With the Fuhrers back against an atomic wall, in desperation, he sent his top spy to New Mexico. His mission: To steal Americas atomic bomb secrets. This is the story of Gunter Fleiss.
