The Unseen Rider: The Bletchley Park Chronicles, Book 2

By Deb Stratas

February 1942. Still mourning the devastating loss of her young brother during the Blitz, spirited Fern Grey is determined to do her part for Britain's war effort. When she receives her call-up papers for the Women's Royal Naval Service, she plunges into the rigours of WREN training. Posted as a driver in Portsmouth, Fern forms unlikely friendships with shy Daphne Neagle and the aristocratic Cressida Talbot. Then she meets Canadian RCAF navigator Benjamin Lewis, whose quiet charm begins to capture her heart. But as the war tightens its grip, love proves as uncertain as the future.

From naval motor pools to the dangerous world of motorcycle dispatch riding, Fern pushes herself further than she ever imagined possible. Surrounded by happy news of marriages and babies, Ben and thousands of others still fight overseas. Fern must find the courage to persevere and find her own way. When tragedy strikes, and Ben is reported missing and then captured as a prisoner of war, she faces her greatest test yet-one that will lead her into secret wartime work at Bletchley Park. The Unseen Rider is a moving story of courage, friendship, and love in wartime Britain, where ordinary women discover extraordinary strength.

The Unseen Rider is the second historical fiction novel in the Bletchley Park Chronicles series. The Unquiet Translator tells sister Violet Grey's story as a German translator at the home of the codebreakers, Bletchley Park.
