Historia
Ava thought her job as a librarian at the Library of Congress would mean a quiet, routine existence. But an unexpected offer from the US military has brought her to Lisbon with a new mission: posing as a librarian while working undercover as a spy gathering intelligence. Meanwhile, in occupied France, Elaine has begun an apprenticeship at a printing press run by members of the Resistance. It’s a job usually reserved for men, but in the war, those rules have been forgotten. Yet she knows that the Nazis are searching for the press and its printer in order to silence them.

Historia
In a different world, Evie Milton would have accepted her fate, married an aristocrat and become the doyenne of one of England’s finest estates, just like her mother. In a different world, Rose Wiley would have married her fiancé, David, established a modest homestead and brought up a brood of babies, just like her mother. But this isn’t a different world, and these women are not their mothers. Rose dreams of a life filled with more than family and duty to her husband—a life of purpose—and Evie dreams of a life far away from her rarefied existence.

It was a misty Wednesday morning. Inside the Gestapo headquarters, you could cut the tension with a knife. There was a traitor in their midst: Someone had leaked a list of the SS to the British press. The head of the Gestapo called me into his office. Panelled oak walls, a grand piano in the corner, rugs lining the floor—the place where he ordered executions every day.

1941. Audrey Coltrane has always wanted to fly. It's why she implored her father to teach her at the little airfield back home in Texas. It’s why she signed up to train military pilots in Hawaii when the war in Europe began. And it’s why she insists she is not interested in any dream-derailing romantic involvements, even with the disarming Lieutenant James Hart, who fast becomes a friend as treasured as the women with whom she flies. Then one fateful day, she gets caught in the air over Pearl Harbor just as the bombs begin to fall, and suddenly, nowhere feels safe.

In a different world, Evie Milton would have accepted her fate, married an aristocrat and become the doyenne of one of England’s finest estates, just like her mother. In a different world, Rose Wiley would have married her fiancé, David, established a modest homestead and brought up a brood of babies, just like her mother. But this isn’t a different world, and these women are not their mothers. Rose dreams of a life filled with more than family and duty to her husband—a life of purpose—and Evie dreams of a life far away from her rarefied existence.

In a different world, Evie Milton would have accepted her fate, married an aristocrat and become the doyenne of one of England’s finest estates, just like her mother. In a different world, Rose Wiley would have married her fiancé, David, established a modest homestead and brought up a brood of babies, just like her mother. But this isn’t a different world, and these women are not their mothers. Rose dreams of a life filled with more than family and duty to her husband—a life of purpose—and Evie dreams of a life far away from her rarefied existence.

Overall enjoyed!
I picked this book up on a recommendation and really enjoyed it. I found myself thinking about Julia’s life and her notion to have it all. I loved the past and present comparison. I do wish we could have heard from the past after the war.

Great Story Line
I really liked going back and forth from past to present! It flowed well and made it easy to follow along. I would have loved to get a little more of what happened in Pamela's world after the war and maybe even a few months or year check in on Julia.

Pretty Good Parallel Stories
This was a pretty good story about Bletchley Park, although a little predictable.
I am a WW2 buff and have been to Bletchley Park on a couple occasions.
The descriptions of the House and grounds were pretty accurate.
The Contemporary story was ok but I did not like the "gay" angle.
The story would have been much better without it in my opinion.
Not sure I would listen to another by this author. The narrator was pretty good.

Good story but slow
I really enjoy historical fiction, especially about Bletchley Park. The dual storylines allowed for a compelling story about BP to be woven a little at time, but the pace of it is quite slow. The main movement of the modern story (especially) did not happen until 2/3 of the book was already behind me. I do feel that a lot of this book served to educate about two things:
1. Bletchley Park’s history
2. Gambling Addiction
Overall, an interesting story, if you like historical fiction, this is enjoyable.

Bletchley Park...
I really enjoyed the style this book was written. Going back and forth from War Time to Modern Day. Showing the strength, stamia, and smarts women have. It was an important cog in the winning of the war so glad more is being written about the ladies of Bletchley Park!
