Not aimed at me as an adult but interesting to read anyway.
Set in Bletchley Park during World War Two, Robyn is living there because her parents are working there. She is a bit of a tearaway and after “borrowing“ a bicycle is sent to see a mysterious person she calls The Heron.
She becomes an apprentice looking after carrier pigeons but soon becomes suspicious of who could be a spy.
Along with two friends she sets out to get evidence and expose the traitor.
This book gives a fictional account interspersed with real life people who were at Bletchley. It also includes some historical facts about ways Bletchley helped Britain during the war.
I like the cover art on this book. Colourful but also old fashioned a bit like an Enid Blyton.
I think the pigeons are my favourite characters.
Could have been a bit more character development, as some characters appear but then disappear and we don’t get to know a lot about them.
