Stallion Gate
by Martin Cruz Smith
Publisher:  Random House
Copyright 1986
FIRST EDITION

In a New Mexico blizzard, four men cross a barbed-wire fence at Stallion Gate to select the test site for the first atomic weapon.  They are Oppenheimer, the physicist; Groves, the general; Fuchs, the spy.  The fourth man is Sergeant Joe Pena, a hero, informer, fighter, musician, Indian.

Oppenheimer and Groves have hidden Los Alamos on a mesa surrounded by vast Indian reservations.  It is the most secret installation of the war, the future encompassed by the past.  To it come soldiers, roughnecks and scientists, including Anna Weiss, a mathematician and refugee from the Holocaust with whom Joe falls in love.

A magnificent successor to Gorky Park, Stallion Gate is a powerful erotic idyll, a blend of love and betrayal, of humor and cultures in collusion, of jazz and war.  It is also a novel about the most important ten seconds in history.
