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. 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. 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. 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.
So in exciting news, The Rose Code will be made into a TV series! I think it will work super well in that format. And Osla’s romance with Prince Phillip was entertaining as well. I’m curious if you all thought the story was too lengthy-let me know! But beyond the length, I loved all the historical details about life as a codebreaker. I read The Rose Code several days ago and I’m still thinking about this novel! While I thought it was too long, it’s definitely an impactful story.
