I really liked this book - the characters were very easy to get attached to with a thoroughly likable heroine in Juliet (and without spoilers I am so glad the romance arc ended up where it did!) There were a few scenes where I thought the author could have really delved deeper into the characters feelings more, but ultimately I was very satisfied because what really sold the novel for me was the story - well told and with an air of authenticity (it was obvious the author did a immense amount of work researching various aspects of being a cryptographer in occupied France). An engaging and endearing read and hoping to see and read more of this authors work in the future.
