The Green Glass Sea by Ellen Klages is the story of two girls who spend a year living in Los Alamos while their scientist parents work on a "gadget" that will end World War II. This book is suitable for older readers who know the background story of World War II. The unusual setting and colorful characters make this a great historical fiction read.
