By the end of World War II, Stalin's spies had delivered the secrets of the atomic bomb to the Kremlin. This accelerated Moscow's bomb project. When the Soviets detonated their first atomic weapon in August 1949, it was a replica of the weapon built at Los Alamos and dropped by the Americans on Nagasaki. This was arguably the biggest spy scandal in history. Who were these spies? How did they manage to breach the tight security of Los Alamos? How were they discovered? Were they brought to justice? Was Oppenheimer one of them?
