Gone Away

In the dark stretch of World War II, ambitious student and newlywed Adrienne Kennedy is asked to give up everything she’d planned for her future, her degree, her home, even her name, when her husband Joe is recruited for a top-secret wartime mission in the New Mexico desert. Here, Adrienne follows him into an isolated world of aliases and aggressive, barb-wired silence.

Cut off from everyone she loves, Adrienne must navigate a strange new life among brilliant scientists, military guards, and the wives who keep the hidden community running. As secrecy tightens around her marriage and the war presses in from afar, and as one belligerent captain begins suspecting her of sabotage, she questions what sacrifice truly means, and how much of herself she can surrender before she disappears entirely.
