More News about The Rose Code!
Last year author and friend Kate Quinn gave me
details about her book she was working on “The Rose Code,” about three
different women who are code breakers in World War II. I have more of a synopsis
of what the book is about. The book will be released on March 9th
2021. The cover image will be released on August 5th of this year.
Once the cover is available on Amazon, I will have the image underneath my
section Books I’m looking forward to reading. “The Rose Code,” is already
available for pre-order.
I came across the full synopsis of “The Rose Code,” from
a link Kate posted on her Facebook.
ABOUT
THE BOOK
The
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Huntress and The Alice
Network returns with another heart-stopping World War II story of three female
code breakers at Bletchley Park and the spy they must root out after the war is
over.
1940.
As England prepares to fight the Nazis, three very different women answer the
call to mysterious country estate Bletchley Park, where the best minds in
Britain train to break German military codes. Vivacious debutante Osla is the
girl who has everything—beauty, wealth, and the dashing Prince Philip of Greece
sending her roses—but she burns to prove herself as more than a society girl,
and puts her fluent German to use as a translator of decoded enemy secrets.
Imperious self-made Mab, product of east-end London poverty, works the
legendary codebreaking machines as she conceals old wounds and looks for a
socially advantageous husband. Both Osla and Mab are quick to see the potential
in local village spinster Beth, whose shyness conceals a brilliant facility with
puzzles, and soon Beth spreads her wings as one of the Park’s few female
cryptanalysts. But war, loss, and the impossible pressure of secrecy will tear
the three apart.
1947.
As the royal wedding of Princess Elizabeth and Prince Philip whips post-war Britain
into a fever, three friends-turned-enemies are reunited by a mysterious
encrypted letter–the key to which lies buried in the long-ago betrayal that
destroyed their friendship and left one of them confined to an asylum. A
mysterious traitor has emerged from the shadows of their Bletchley Park past,
and now Osla, Mab, and Beth must resurrect their old alliance and crack one
last code together. But each petal they remove from the rose code brings
danger–and their true enemy–closer…
