Product description

Brodie, Hunter and Tusia are back at Station X, the code-cracking station at Bletchley Park. And they are still wrestling with the great unanswered question: what lies behind the ancient code of the Voynich Manuscript? Their first adventure left them with a musical box that plays a tune by the composer, Elgar. Now their search takes them to a coded letter Elgar wrote to a friend: the ‘Dorabella Cipher’. Soon a twisting trail leads the young code-crackers from medieval book burnings in Florence to London’s notorious Newgate Prison. But what is the secret of the mysterious boy known as the Orphan of the Flames? And can they hide from the sinister anti-truth organisation which is still attempting to kill them? The second gripping story in this unique puzzle-solving series – a Da Vinci Code for kids!

H.L. Dennis

H. L. Dennis was born in Brighton and loves living near the sea. She’s worked in a boarding school for deaf children; in a book shop and as a children’s story teller in a Native American Tepee. She and her husband taught together at the largest Junior School in Europe where she still works part time as a Year Five teacher and Head of English. Her daughter Meggie, an avid reader, has been amazing help with the building of the Secret Breakers series but her dog Benji, who’s probably the laziest dog in the world, has been absolutely no help at all! In her Secret Breakers events, H. L. Dennis does interactive code-breaking sessions to demonstrate that everyone can solve difficult puzzles!
