Resumen del Editor

Three years into the Great War, England's greatest asset is their intelligence network - field agents risking their lives to gather information, and codebreakers able to crack every German telegram. Margot De Wilde thrives in the environment of the secretive Room 40, where she spends her days deciphering intercepted messages. But when her world is turned upside down by an unexpected loss, for the first time in her life numbers aren't enough.

Drake Elton returns wounded form the field, followed by an enemy who just won't give up. He's smitten quickly by the intelligent Margot, but how can he convince a girl who lives entirely in her mind that sometimes life's answers lie in the heart?

Amid biological warfare, encrypted letters, and a German spy who wants to destroy not just them but others they love, Margot and Drake will have to work together to save themselves form the very secrets that brought them together.

A surprisingly beautiful Love Story

Codes, secrets and the romantic heroism for which we all secretly long. Who says romance and Love can’t be scientifically & mathematically pleasing, that it can’t - make “sense”?

Characterization

Loved this book! I love how real the characters are. The emotions. Roseanna M White is amazing.

Read after the Shadows over England series!

I recommend reading the Shadows Over England series first, so you don’t suffer from any spoilers. I really enjoyed this continuation of Margot’s story and seeing previous characters even if only for a moment. I appreciate the humanity of this book, that the “enemy” wasn’t portrayed as pure evil but with his own story from the other side of the war. I also enjoyed the way Ms. White wrote Margot’s relationship with God and how He speaks to her in her language.

The Number of love

What an unusual story! I absolutely loved it from beginning to end ! Susan Lyons is a remarkable narrator , well chosen for this book. I am looking forward to listen to more books by this author for sure .

Intriguing

For some reason, I had not read a book by Ms. White before this one. However, I have already purchased its sequel, and am anxious to begin. Roseanna White is an intelligent and gifted writer, who can weave an intriguing story that feels both plausible and warm. She creates mystery without hyperbole and develops a love story without exaggeration. The reader is drawn into the family of characters as naturally as forming a personal relationship in person. The story flows more smoothly and naturally, never feeling forced or contrived, than any I’ve read in a very long time. The tension created by the plot is comfortable while still keeping you completely engaged. I’m looking forward to the reading journey ahead as I enjoy the remainder of Ms. White’s books.

incredible

A work of art. Absolutely magic. Beautiful humans. Rich text. Real to life. Hopeful. Grateful!

Surprizingly wonderful.

I've never been a fan of WWI as a time period. I hate to say it, but I felt it was almost boring compared to other times. Roseanna M. White and Susan Lyons have completely changed my perspective with this delightfully intriguing book. It flows beautifully, keeps true to the characters personalities and fascinates. I noticed it was book 1 and can't wait for the next and the next!

Loved this book

Wonderfully written. Interesting setting, characters, and story. I was so sad it had to end.

Yummy Intrigue Again

This author creates the most interesting characters. In this plot, the mathematics are far beyond my understanding. However my admiration for anyone like Margo is pure awe. In the last White book I read, I loved the narrator and noted how important the narrator is in an audible book. This narrator captured Margo and the essence of code breakers. But the monotone of so many of the characters and the narrative took a little from the story. It is still a great read. I look forward to the next one.

Enjoyable and well read.

Enjoyable, clean and well read. Will read more from this author when available with my subscription.
