Kate Quinn has given us a gem of a book. One of those of those rare few you encounter that you simultaneously can't wait to finish, yet don't want to end. The characters who people this tale, many of whom are inspired by real individuals, & others who are fictionalized are brilliantly drawn & richly detailed as is the story itself. A deftly written page-turner with characters who are genuine & authentic.

This review is from an Advanced Reader's Edition received from an online book club.

An interesting bit of historical fiction. You will love the three code breakers, their work and their friendships. Happy, sad, oppressive and rejoiceful. The things we never learned in history class. Very informative, interesting and adventurous.
