A fresh account of a mysterious theft, by the woman at the heart of the eventThis exciting, real-life thriller tells the inside story of how a historic Enigma machine was stolen-and recovered-in 2000. The theft of the machine, which the Allies had used to decode German messages during World War II, was the culmination of a hate campaign against Christine Large, the new female director of Britain's Bletchley Park, the headquarters of allied codebreaking during the war. Now, Large reveals what really happened, interspersing her tale with fascinating Enigma facts and lore-the death threats against her, the coded messages and disguised phone calls the thieves used to taunt her and the police, and the machine's ultimate recovery after it was mailed to the BBC. Christine Large (London, UK) became the Director of Bletchley Park in 1998 and has worked to transform the site into a heritage park famed for education and technology innovation.
