Retrace the footsteps of famous codebreakers and solve mind-bending hidden codes, cryptic crosswords, secret languages and complex riddles inspired by the missions Bletchley Park assisted in during World War II.Would you have been an indexer targeting Air Enigma in Hut 3? Or a Wren operating Colossus in the Newmanry looking for D-Day intelligence? Or maybe an RAF recruit in JAFO deciphering Japanese codes?Whilst World War II operations began in the famous Victorian mansion, new buildings soon materialised to accommodate the 9,000-strong workforce and machines that would help to penetrate the heart of Axis powers.But that success didn't begin in the park. Information was first collected in the sheds of amateur radio operators and findings sent to a PO Box in Barnet. Once at Bletchley, it travelled between huts and atop desks, each stop uncovering a clearer picture of the battleground.Could you turn that data into intelligence? And intelligence into victory? Packed with never-before-seen puzzles to challenge even the most devoted puzzlers, The Bletchley Park Puzzle Book takes you to the epicentre of British wartime codebreaking.Where would YOU be stationed at Bletchley Park?
