Smith-Blum, a sunrise writer, has lived in Seattle for four decades. She works out her writer’s block in her sons’ gardens (which she designed) and the nearest lap pool. A Cold War Love StoryWrapped Inside an Environmental ThrillerA quietly fierce secretary,a brash young scientist,a small town cloaked in secrecy...andan entire region under threat.I checked Audible.
