Every message has a moment when it matters. In 1943, at the height of the Second World War, Eleanor Thorpe works the night shift at Britain’s most secret intelligence operation. Her job is simple in theory: review decrypted enemy communications and ensure they reach command in time to save lives. But Eleanor begins to notice a pattern. Critical messages—warnings about U-boats, convoy routes, and naval movements—are arriving just a few hours too late. Not lost. Not destroyed. Simply delayed. Long enough for decisions to be made without them.
