Atoms for Peace asks a simple question: what if the SF films of the 1950s had really happened?The story starts in 1953, just a year after the Martians invaded and almost wiped humanity out. Retired OSS spy Gwen Montgomery discovers Martians aren't the only super-science threat we have to face when a dead half-lizard man shows up near her apartment. In The Claws That Catch, dignified Boston doctor Danielle Taylor finds her hometown overwhelmed by an invasion of mutated lobster-men.
It turns out that fighting on the front lines to save life is what she was made for. In The Spider Strikes, Gwen -now a federal agent investigating rogue scientific research - gets unexpected help from Steve Flanagan, a two-fisted drifter hunting his possibly criminal brother. Over the course of the 1950s Steve and Dani become a couple while Gwen and Steve become an investigative team. Their friendships and love affairs, along with the rest of the cast, play out against a backdrop where we're launching rockets to the moon in the 1950s, alien infiltrators can occupy high government positions, radiation creates a constant stream of mutated monsters and everyone on Earth knows their next day could potentially be their last.
There's love, danger, mystery and a little politics in the world of Atoms for Peace.
