A delightful read! These strange and extraordinary tales are told with such warmth that you just can’t help but enjoy each short story. The serendipitous twists and turns involved in the Enigma Code story are particularly captivating. Accessible and engaging, this book would make a wonderful stocking filler, even for the less avid readers amongst us.
