The Codebreaker Girl

France, 1939. We hold our breath as we gather round the radio. ‘German aircraft have destroyed thousands of homes.’ I am speechless. My heart is breaking. Everything depends on us cracking the Enigma code – and making it to Bletchley Park alive…

Inspired by true stories of courageous mathematicians who worked on the top-secret Enigma code, this heartbreaking World War 2 historical novel explores the incredible bravery of ordinary people in the darkest of days.

After graduating as the first and only woman on her university course, orphan Beata is set on joining the Cipher Bureau. She’s determined to save her country from invasion by cracking the Enigma code. But, as gunfire rings across the rooftops of her hometown and Nazi boots sound on the cobblestones, Beata and her team are forced to work in secret.

Meeting with underground British intelligence, Beata catches the bright, sparkling eyes of one of the agents, Harry. His excitement about Enigma and how vital it is for all their futures makes her more determined than ever to do what’s right. But with the war destroying everything she holds dear and tearing them in different directions, their only hope is to reunite at the home of British codebreakers: Bletchley Park.

Carrying the final key to the Enigma code, and with the Nazis close on her tail, can Beata keep the secrets she holds safe and turn the tide of the war? And will she ever see Harry again?

This completely addictive and unputdownable read is perfect for fans of Kate Quinn, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, and My Name is Eva.
