Interesting perspective on Berlin from the time the Wall went up until it opened in 1989. The codes confused me since sometimes it was clear where the coded words came from and sometimes it wasn't. I also couldn't help but think that the letters would have been in German so would the codes still have worked? But I enjoyed the story and the characters.

I loved this book. The way Reay wrote dual perspectives, the way they shared the volatility of Berlin, it was so well done. A real page turner!
