Book of the Month: The Rose Code by Kate Quinn
Synopsis
Three very different women arrive to the country estate Bletchley Park to help break German military codes in 1940. Osla, a debutante of great wealth, is dying to prove herself as more than rich and famous. Mab, with a rags-to-riches story, works on the code-breaking machine. And Beth, the local village spinster, is a genius at puzzles but hides her skills behind her shyness. Over time, the secrets they must keep and the pressures of war tear the three women apart.
Seven years later in 1947, the three friends-turned-enemies are reunited by a mysterious letter. A traitor has emerged from the shadows of their Bletchley Park past, and now Osla, Mab, and Beth must work together to decipher one last code.
