The Secret Lives of Codebreakers: The Men and Women Who Cracked the Enigma Code at Bletchley Park

Go behind the scenes of the top-secret setting of The Imitation Game

A remarkable look at day-to-day life of the codebreakers whose clandestine efforts helped win World War II

Bletchley Park looked like any other sprawling country estate. In reality, however, it was the top-secret headquarters of Britainâ€™s Government Code and Cypher Schoolâ€”and the site where Germanyâ€™s legendary Enigma code was finally cracked. There, the nationâ€™s most brilliant mathematical mindsâ€”including Alan Turing, whose discoveries at Bletchley would fuel the birth of modern computingâ€”toiled alongside debutantes, factory workers, and students on projects of international importance. Until now, little has been revealed about ordinary life at this extraordinary facility. Drawing on remarkable first-hand interviews, The Secret Lives of Codebreakers reveals the entertainments, pastimes, and furtive romances that helped ease the incredible pressures faced by these covert operatives as they worked to turn the tide of World War II.
