TANGLES, the title of Kay Smith-Blum’s book is more than apt: Alternating stories from Mary Boone and Luke Hinson, at first, seem unrelated – except as next-door neighbors in the northwest United States. Mary’s tale centers on highly classified scientific work during the mid- and late 1940s; Luke’s, his doctoral thesis about radioactive waste in Washington State waters. The tangles: Luke’s relationship to Mary’s twins; Mary’s disappearance; radioactive impacts on area citizens, and more. Sobering, realistic narrative with easy-to-like protagonists.
