About this title

Synopsis

The celebrated code breakers of Bletchley Park would have had no messages to decipher without the efforts of the 'Y' ('Wireless') Service, which sent men and women across the globe to listening stations where German messages were intercepted. Sinclair McKay uses interviews with surviving veterans of the Service to tell both the history of this shadowy organization and the personal stories of the young interceptors and their life-changing experiences far from home.

About the Author

SINCLAIR MCKAY is the bestselling author of The Secret Life of Bletchley Park and The Secret Listeners for Aurum, as well as histories of Hammer films, the James Bond films, and the pastime of rambling. He lives in London.
