The team of code-crackers face a new code that has never been solved.
Brodie, Hunter and Tusia are back at Station X, the secret code-cracking
station at Bletchley Park. And they are still wrestling with the great
unanswered question: what secret lies behind the ancient, coded Voynich
Manuscript? Their first adventure left them with a musical box that
plays a tune by the composer, Elgar. Elgar loved codes.
At once they are off on a new search which takes them to the stories
behind Elgar's famous music and a coded letter he wrote to a young
friend, Dorabella. The 'Dorabella Cipher' has never, ever been solved.
Now our team of code-breakers are on a twisting trail via medieval book
burnings in Florence, a mysterious boy known as the Orphan of the
Flames, and a one-time famous prisoner in London's Newgate Prison who
wrote about King Arthur. Where is it all leading? And will they survive,
when hot on their trail is a secret organisation that has always
thwarted the search for Truth and is prepared to kill to stop them ...
The second story in this highly original puzzle-solving series - a Da
Vinci Code for kids. The reader races along with the Secret Breakers
team to break the code ...
