I love when reading really great books capture your imagination and invite you to live with them long after you turn the last page. One of the great things about a series is that you get to stay with those characters for more than one book. The Codebreakers series by Roseanna M. White is just such a series.
The problem, however, is that authors need time to write said great series, and then readers have to wait for the subsequent books to come out. (I know that some readers just wait for the whole series to be released, but, come on – I’m wayyyy too impatient for that!)
It’s okay, though – because in the case of Codebreakers, Roseanna M. White is releasing the cover of the next book in this series – and it’s beautiful!
Meet A Portrait of Loyalty.
Here’s the story:
Zivon Marin was one of Russia’s top cryptographers, until the October Revolution tore apart his world. Forced to flee after speaking out against Lenin and separated from his brother along the way, he arrives in England driven by a growing anger and determined to offer his services to the Brits.
Lily Blackwell sees the world best through the lens of a camera—and possesses unsurpassed skill when it comes to retouching and recreating photographs. With her father’s connections in propaganda, she’s recruited to the intelligence division, even though her mother would disapprove.
After Captain Blackwell invites Zivon to dinner one evening, a friendship blooms between him and Lily. He sees patterns in what she deems chaos; she sees beauty in a world he thought destroyed. But both have secrets they’re unwilling to share, and no one is quite certain where Zivon’s loyalties really lie—until his enemies are discovered to be far closer than he’d feared, and only Lily’s skills can save him.
What do you think? Doesn’t it sound awesome?
Definitely worth waiting for.
