Klucz do Rebeki

(...)

At the bottom of the half-burned pile was a book, a novel in English.

Vandam frowned. He opened the book and read the first line: "Last night I

dreamt I went to Manderley again." The book was called Rebecca, and it was

by Daphne du Maurier. The title was vaguely familiar. Vandam thought

his wife might have read it. It seemed to be about a young woman living

in an English country house.

Vandarn scratched his head. it was, to say the least, pecu~ Iiar

readingfor the Afrika Korps.

And why was it in English?

It might have been taken from a captured English soldier, but Vandam

thought that unlikely: in his experience soldiers read pornography,

hard-boiled private eye stories and the Bible. Somehow he could not

imagine the Desert Rats getting interested in the problems of the

mistress of Manderley.

No, the book was here for a purpose, What purpose? Vandam could think of

only one possibility: it was the basis of a code.

A book code was a variation on the one-time pad. A onetime pad had

letters and numbers randomly printed in fivecharacter groups. Only two

copies of each pad were made: one for the sender and one for the

recipient of the signals. Each sheet of the pad was used for one message,

then torn off and destroyed. Because each sheet was used only once the

code could not be broken. A book code used the pages of a printed book

in the same way, except that the sheets were not necessarily destroyed

after use.

Bogge was coming to find him.

Vandam stared at him. He was white-faced, and angry to the point of

hysteria. He came stomping across the dusty sand, a sheet of paper in his hand.

Vandam. thought: What the devil has got into him?

Bogge shouted: "What do you do all day, anyway?"

Vandam said nothing. Bogge handed him the sheet of paper. Vandam. looked at it.

It was a coded radio signal, with the decrypt written between the lines of

code. It was timed at midnight on June 3. The sender used the call sign

Sphinx. The message, after the usual preliminaries about signal strength,

bore the heading OPERATION ABERDEEN.

The audio file is contained message to Cairo spy.
