But in this case, the 'unlikely' also may refer to the specific woman's background and personality, and perhaps most important, to the truly unlikely circumstances in which she became embroiled in decoding messages. She was visiting a library to see a folio edition of Shakespeare's plays, and through a chance conversation ended up working for this eccentric millionaire who wanted to decode the 'secret messages' left in the text of the plays in that same edition of the plays. And later, because the US military had essentially no code-breaking ability at the start of World War I and because the patriotic millionaire (Fabayan) volunteered his support to the government, Elizebeth and William began to work on what would ultimately become their life's main professional task, decoding messages. Personally I do think that was a series of unlikely events. Furthermore, I found it quite surprising that Elizebeth ended up working for the Coast Guard during WWII, not the Army or the Navy, which might have seemed more likely. How many people do you think would know or guess that the Coast Guard had a major role in code-breaking in WWII? So I do not think the term 'Unlikely' is unreasonable in this case, but for several reasons aside from (possible) misogyny. (less)

If you do a bit of research on Elizebeth Smith and Riverbank you can see how closely the author has stayed with the facts and not strayed far afield. So interesting that I would really want to visit the museum at Riverbank to learn more. Happy reading!(less)

The more difficult question to answer would relate to how interesting the book would be to a teen reader. It might be a trifle on the dry side in spots, but if the teen is interested in codes, women's contributions in World War II, U.S. history, etc., then I think the book would be well received. I would not hesitate to gift a copy to my granddaughter or grandsons (all upper teens to lower twenties).(less)

Do you think a marriage can be successful today if both parties aren't in love to begin with? Why/how do you think that her feelings changed?
Why didn't they talk about William's health problems?
How do you think his 'melancholy' would have been treated today?
Do you think that there could be a code hidden in Shakespeare's plays? Do you think there was any merit in looking? What do you think of their original boss? (less)
