About the Book

Check out your enigma-solving skills and see if you have the ability to become a master codebreaker!

Alan Turing is known as the father of modern computing, recognised for his incredible intelligence work at Bletchley Park during World War II where he cracked the Enigma cipher.

Published in association with The Turing Trust, this collection of 240 challenging and innovative codebreaking puzzles has been specially created to test your all-round codebreaking skills. As you work through the book, you will find the puzzles become progressively harder until you face the final mind-bending Enigma ciphers. A handy hint section is included as well as solutions in the back, which will lead you step-by-step through the logic of each puzzle.

This book includes a foreword written by Sir Dermot Turing - Alan Turing's nephew and trustee of The Turing Trust. Set up in Alan Turing's memory, this charity provides communities in rural Africa with computers and computer learning resources. This book supports the running of the trust.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
