Although the Nevada Nuclear Test Site, the Device Assembly Facility, Nellis Air Force Range, Groom Lake, and other places in this novel actually exist, the authors have taken liberty in detailing the descriptions, not only to add to this story, but to prevent any unwarranted breaches of national security. No nuclear storage compound exists at Omega Mountain. The authors have never had actual access to the Device Assembly Facility or the supposed Groom Lake installation known as Area 51, and all characters and circumstances depicted herein are purely the product of the authors’ imaginations. All details involving security, nuclear weapons, and other devices can readily be found in declassified public sources.
All circumstances and characters in this novel are fictional. The views and opinons, expressed or implied, are solely those of the authors and are not meant to reflect the views of the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, the Nevada Test Site, the U.S. Air Force, the FBI, or the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.
