Deep in a rugged section of Alaska, something is making people ill. It’s cancer—and it’s striking dozens of laborers and soldiers who worked there on a nuclear cleanup site. But when anti-nuclear activist Carrie Graham turns up evidence of the improper disposal of radioactive waste, it reveals something even more sinister. And the U.S. government will stop at nothing to prevent the information’s release, even if it means putting an end to Graham’s activities—permanently.
