The Rose Code: A Novel

This book is incredible...took a little getting into until all the characters came together in the plot but oh my it was so well written.I'm sure we are all in total awe of the work achieved at Bletchley Park during ww2, but this novel makes it so personal. I so wanted to finish it, but knew there would be a massive hole left as the last page turned. Nothing short of BRILLIANT LITERATURE....thanku xx

I liked the history or it and the twists!!!

Me encantó conocer la historia de bletchey park y lo que pasó en la guerra.Muy interesante ambientación. Personajes creíbles y bien delineados. Misterio final bien para atraparte.e encantó.

What a journey! I feel like I've been transported back in time (1939) and have just returned to the present after reading the last page!This book! It was completely engrossing! It was like a warm blanket that I could wrap around me and forget where I was! Each character was like someone I knew personally and their story of love, hardship, friendship and loss was my own story!This is the tale of Osla, Mab and Beth, three young women from different backgrounds, who meet in Bletchley Park during the war and become best friends. Each of them has a particular trait that helps them to decipher the enigma machine that the Germans used to send decoded messages during the war! When disaster strikes their friendship seems to be broken forever. That is until one of them is locked up in an asylum with too many dangerous secrets to keep.When she turns to her old friends for help, the girls have to put aside their grudges to expose a traitor who worked among them at Bletchley Park.These women go through so much together it's heartbreaking!The story alternates between two timelines, which I always find fascinating. One is set during the war and the other is set just days before the royal wedding between Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip takes place in 1947.Needless to say, it had me cheering, crying, laughing and screaming in outrage with some of the characters. If you're a history buff you can't miss this one!From the description of the girls' clothing to Glenn Miller's music and the language, the author did a phenomenal job of setting the mood!Now please excuse me while I go find every other book Kate Quinn has ever written!Can’t wait for the mini series now!
