 Chapter 11      Chapter 11 is about the second eldest daughter, Lady Margaret Sutton. She had gone to Paris to learn fashion before the war and chose to not come back to England at the start of the war because she fell in love with a French man and wanted to be with her. The chapter starts off in her room when she gets abducted into german captivity where she is introduced to Madame Armande who was also a captured English woman who was allowed to live over a deal to care for other prisoners like Margaret.      Thoughts:      We are again introduced to another character and with the minimal introduction, we are able to know what kind of person she is.  Chapter 12-14  In these chapters, Pamela and Ben finally meet Jeremy after a long time, and after the two talk to each other Ben says that he would leave and let the two talk.

I would like to start merging the chapter reflection the more chapters I go because I do not feel the need to write long summaries for each chapter as they mostly just continue from one another and because I would not have to explain things like I did in the first few chapters.  Chapter 6:      I forgot to write this in the last post, but the book is mainly divided into 3 main parts, and Part 1 titled Pamela is focused around the character Pamela and is consisted of chapters 1-5. But, although it has Palmela in the title, it also talks about other characters too. Chapter 6 was the start of Part 2 titled Ben and it starts off in Wormwood Scrubs prison Acton, West London with Ben Cresswell, son of Reverend Cresswell, vicar of All Saints Church at an M15 base covered to look like a prison. It starts off with him exiting the "prison" as he greets the guard with the same joke every time. He was heading to the tube station when he was stopped by a man who criticized him fo...

Chapter 1:      The book "In Farleigh Feild" By Rhys Bowen starts off in Bletchley Park where Pamela Sutton a.k.a Lady Pamma and Trixie Radcliffe are talking about their jobs in their small cubical. They are looking for a job to do during the war (WW2) and joke about doing spy jobs for England. Because of their high education during their childhood, they were assigned as decoders and swore secrecy to start the job. But as it was during wartime, they didn't have enough workers to work all day so they had to make Pamela work the night shift that put a toll on her mental health. Albeit just being a newcomer to work, she was forced to work day and night for over 20 hours with minimal rest and an overabundance of pressure. On top of this atrocious workload, she received information that her lover was released from German captivity and had flown back to England. Not being able to handle the stress in just a short amount of time, Pamela fainted and was ordered to go back home an...
