While this bloody encounter rages on, a more fundamental contest is bing played out in secret laboratories and testing sites around the globe. It's signature is the monstrous mushroom cloud--the Hydrogen Bomb, mankind's deadliest weapon. Was Captain Manigrove's death tied to the gold or was he a casualty of this secret war?
