In 1940 England, three women find themselves at the center of Bletchley Park, where the best of the British work to decode German messages. Osla, a woman who has it all, and self-made Mab see the potential in Beth, a local spinster; the cryptanalysts work together but are eventually torn apart by the pressures of the job. Seven years later, the women reconnect through a mysterious encrypted letter. After joining forces, the trio discovers a traitor who worked at Bletchley Park and decides to crack one more code together.
Kate Quinn, a New York Times bestselling author, is known for The Huntress and The Alice Network—but The Rose Code showcases a different perspective of history. I thoroughly enjoyed The Rose Code and recommend it to anyone who enjoys World War II historical fiction novels.
