About This Novel

Adam Higginbotham spent many years of hard work and finally completed this masterpiece about the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident. This powerful investigation reveals how the truth about one of the greatest disasters of the twentieth century was concealed through a combination of political propaganda, secrecy, and rumors. In the early morning of April 26, 1986, Reactor No. 4 Of the Chernobyl Atomic Power Plant exploded, triggering one of the worst nuclear disasters in history. In the thirty years since, Chernobyl has become a haunting nightmare for the entire world: the haunting threat of radiation poisoning, the huge risk of a dangerous technology running amok, the fragility of its ecosystem, and the damage it has done to its citizens and the world at large. However, the truth of this accident was covered up from the beginning, and opinions have been divided for a long time. Over more than a decade, Adam Higginbotham conducted hundreds of hours of interviews, supplemented by letters, unpublished memoirs, and newly declassified archival documents. He turned what those who witnessed the disaster witnessed into an objective, calm, and thought-provoking narrative. The result is a thrilling nonfiction masterpiece, a story more complex, more human, and more terrifying than the Soviet saga.
