Between Silk and Cyanide: A Codemaker's War 1941-1945

Good characters, amazing true story, not a super strong narrative path, but something is always happening. The author has a slightly weird style where his attempts at metaphor and wordplay seem sorta forced, but as you get to know his personality you start to appreciate it. One thing I found sort of frustrating is that the author attempts to demonstrate “how the code works” at a few points early in the book, and maybe it was the Kindle format or maybe I'm a little dyslexic, but I didn't follow at all. The good news for those of you who also experience this, is that it doesn't really matter in the end, as he generally explains the situation in lay terms as well. Highly recommended. Made me hate my job because it's not as noble as staying up all night decoding secret dispatches to help heroic secret agents blow up Nazi trains.
