Encrypted Hearts will be released on 1st December about two code breakers based at Bletchley Park during WW2. Here is the blurb:
Cam Langley, a sharp-witted codebreaker at Bletchley Park, dresses like a man but makes no secret of who she is. Gloria Edwards, eager to escape her domineering father, joins the war effort and is quickly drawn into Cam’s orbit.
Cam feels an immediate attraction, while Gloria is caught off guard, having only ever been with men. As they form a formidable team, their connection deepens, but a spy within Bletchley threatens to destroy everything.
With secrets swirling, can they survive the chaos of war, or will danger tear them apart?
Doing the research for this book has been fascinating – there are so many stories of codebreakers coming across a solution almost by chance – and hard work, yet they were never acknowledged at the time. Amazingly the secret that the enigma code had been broken was never divulged, and it wasn’t until thirty years after the end of the war that the significance of Bletchley Park was recognised. It was a place of secrets and lies…
Puzzles for Prizes!
For a bit of fun I thought I’d produce ten puzzles to be solved, which will be released before the publication date and can be viewed on the website/blog. Be warned, some are more difficult than others!
Email me your completed puzzles to e.v.bancroft.writer(at)gmail.com by 10am December 3rd 2024, UK time. Every puzzle completed correctly will be entered into a draw and one winner will win an ebook on release in December for each of the puzzles.
If you complete all ten puzzles correctly they will be entered into a grand draw to win a signed copy of all the paperback books in the Women in War series: Warm Pearls and Paper Cranes, Virgin Flight and Encrypted Hearts. I’ll even pay for the postage world wide!!
Answers will be published on the blog on 10th December and winners will be notified by email as soon as possible thereafter.
What if I Hate Puzzles?
Don’t worry – if you hate puzzles there aren’t any included in the Encrypted Hearts book, but I wanted to simulate the experience of having to decrypt codes!
