Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein6/2/2023 ![]() ![]() Von Linden wants to know about the British war effort he wants Julie to list types of aircraft in use and airfield locations, and he wants her to describe how the British have used technology like radar. In exchange for the final code set, von Linden gives Julie paper and two weeks to write her story. In exchange for her clothes, Julie gives the Nazis wireless code for each of the 11 wireless sets in the back of the plane. The Gestapo, led by Hauptsturmführer von Linden, torture her for a few weeks and then show her pictures of the back of Maddie’s crashed plane. Julie is captured in Ormaie (a fictional French city) in early October of 1943, when a member of the Gestapo sees her look the wrong way before crossing the street (which is a giveaway that Julie is British rather than French). In the second part, Maddie, a pilot, keeps a diary of what happens after she and Julie crash-land in France. ![]() ![]() ![]() Note to Amadeus von Linden from Nikolaus FerberĬode Name Verity is told in two parts: in the first, Julie, a British spy captured by the Nazis in 1943 in France, writes the story of her friendship with Maddie and how both women became involved in the war effort. ![]()
