The year is 1998, and physicist Dr Mary Yuen has a story to tell about the building of the Malaysian atomic bomb. It's a hilarious tale that sees her being lured away from her mundane lab job to join General Zulkifli's madcap plan to construct a nuclear device "for the good of the country". Along the way, she meets a colourful array of characters - including scientists, smugglers, socialites, ministers and a particularly important canteen lady - and is obliged to come to terms with a difficult moral dilemma. As global pressure is brought to bear on the ambitious project, how is Mary Yuen going to handle it all? Will the country - and the world - ever be the same?
