From USA TODAY and internationally bestselling author Genevieve Graham comes a gripping World War II novel about two sisters who join the war effort, one as a codebreaker and the other as a pilot, and the secrets that threaten to tear them apart?perfect for fans of The Rose Code and The Nightingale.
Twin sisters Dot and Dash Wilson share many things: a birthday, a best friend named Gus, and a secret shorthand based on Morse code, a language their father, a WWI veteran, taught them as children. But that's where their similarities end. While Dot's nose is always in a book, preferably the latest by Agatha Christie, Dash is a social butterfly and spends her evenings out dancing. Despite their differences, the sisters have a close bond?until one develops romantic feelings for Gus.
When war breaks out, the three are scattered across the globe. Dot intercepts coded enemy messages at HMCS Coverdale, a covert intelligence station working with Bletchley Park in England. Before long, she is sent to Camp X, a top-secret spy school where she puts her codebreaking skills to use in hopes of changing the tides of war and saving those she loves. Overseas, Dash trains as a pilot with the Air Transport Auxiliary, risking her life to ferry aircraft and troops across the battlefields of Europe. Meanwhile, Gus is deployed to an unknown front.
Each one holds secrets that, before the war is through, will test their loyalty to their country?and to each other...
Inspired by the real-life stories of women in World War II, The Secret Keepers is an extraordinary novel about the unbreakable bonds of sisterhood and the light of courage during the darkest of nights.
