Heavily Based on a true story

Blowing the Whistle: How I Exposed Corruption in a Nuclear Laboratory, a "Prestigious" University, and the U.S. Government: Volume 1 — a dark comedy and realistic romantic comedy novel about a graduate student whistleblower.

Things keep getting worse in a taxpayer-funded nuclear lab (that is “fictional” for legal reasons, but a nearly one-for-one replica of a real lab) that cuts almost every corner imaginable.

After an ominous warning from one of his bosses, a graduate student realizes he’s about to be terminated from his PhD program. Their reason?

He failed to deliver quick results from a scientifically unproven process for purifying a chemical that could be used in nuclear-waste recycling facilities.

Because the makeshift process repeatedly failed in the lab—and no scientific literature supported its feasibility—his supervisors were effectively condemning him for refusing to falsify data to make the unproven process “work” quickly.

Instead of fighting back immediately, he quits. But before leaving, he collects a boatload of evidence, so he can expose the truth.

Not just about the radioactive-materials lab, but also the federal agencies that funneled taxpayer dollars into it while failing to enforce their own laws.
