About the book:
A female Navy cryptographer seeks to save lives...and uncover her father’s killers.
In 1915, German sympathizers escalated acts of sabotage in the United States to keep the nation from joining in the war. Following the mysterious murder of Emma Shuster’s father, Lt. John Patterson invites Emma to become a Navy cryptographer because of the expertise she gained in helping her father develop a cipher system. Emma finds new strength in her faith as she strives to outwit her adversary, known only as Kobold - German for goblin. Can Emma and John find love in the midst of turmoil as America plunges toward war?
My thoughts: I haven't read this book, nor do a have a copy to review. However, I do love Susan Page Davis's writing, so this novel is sure to please.

I have read non-fiction on WWI, but I can't think of the last time I read a fiction novel set in WWI. It sounds interesting!

I've only read one book about WWI, “Whisper on the Wind” by Maureen Lang. I found it interesting to learn about the circumstances of the war, as they relate to WWII. I would love to win The Crimson Cipher. Please enter me.

I have not read any books on WW1. I did read Sarah Sundin's first book which piqued my interest. I love that this is a mystery with a strong female lead. Thanks for this giveaway!

One of the factors that contributed to the end of WWI was the Spanish flu of 1918. I have been looking for some good fictional books, but I haven't gotten one yet, that was set in that time period.

I would love to win this book. It sounds very interesting. Tore923@aol.com
Michelle, thanks for featuring my book! This story took a lot of research, but the deeper I got into it the more I was intrigued. It's great to see so many readers here. This time period has been somewhat neglected in fiction, but interest is stirring. Hope you all have a terrific day!

I remember seeing movies about WWI, and thought I hadn't read any stories until Carmen, in her comment above, reminded that I had read Julie Lessman's novel, "A Passion Most Pure." Fantastic story and I enjoyed it immensely. WWI was just a few years before my time, but I'd like to learn a lot more about the history of it and the world during that time. I'd like to read Susan's writing and am glad you have this book for giveaway and the chance to win it. I hope I do!
Blessings,

Yes! I have read many books in this time period. In fact I'm reading one right now! Definitely into this time in history, I'm not really sure why. I wish I could pinpoint one reason, but there's just so many reasons.
Thanks for the giveaway!

I don't think I've read any in this time in history, but maybe I have sometime in my life. I must agree with everyone else, it is a really interesting subject, and I would love to learn more about it.

I probably haven't read anything set in this time, but it does interest me. There's just something about learning about all the different sides of the war, and people's different opinions. It helps to remind me that with God on our side we can do all things!

I've only read a couple of WWI books. I'm also attempting to write a WWI romance so any other books on the subject interests me!

I've read any books concerning the WWI books since I don't come across them often. But I am a History student and would simply love to read some fiction setting in the time of WWI.
