I love Kate Quinn. I gave this book 5 stars. I can't wait to see what you all think of it.
I read another one of hers via Reese's Book Club; she is amazing. This is indeed going to be a good one! I will likely read this one after Spell shop, Intermezzo and God of the Woods.
10% of the way in (starting Chaoter 5) and enjoying this one so far. Guessing at some things already. It’s definitely drawing me back and wish I had some time to just sit and read it!
Which one did you read, Travis? You have (had) some popular books lined up to read before this one. I hope they were all excellent.
28% of the way in and it’s starting to drag a bit for me….
I’m now about 50% in and I am re-intrigued!
Just finished! Unique story line during and after WWII. Did not know about the Soviet women pilots which was interesting. Well researched with some inspiration from real people and events; it just got a bit long for me.
This one was so good! Honestly devoured this one.
In the aftermath of war, the hunter becomes the hunted…
Bold and fearless, Nina Markova always dreamed of flying. When the Nazis attack the Soviet Union, she risks everything to join the legendary Night Witches, an all-female night bomber regiment wreaking havoc on the invading Germans. When she is stranded behind enemy lines, Nina becomes the prey of a lethal Nazi murderess known as the Huntress, and only Nina’s bravery and cunning will keep her alive.
Transformed by the horrors he witnessed from Omaha Beach to the Nuremberg Trials, British war correspondent Ian Graham has become a Nazi hunter. Yet one target eludes him: a vicious predator known as the Huntress. To find her, the fierce, disciplined investigator joins forces with the only witness to escape the Huntress alive: the brazen, cocksure Nina. But a shared secret could derail their mission unless Ian and Nina force themselves to confront it.
Growing up in post-war Boston, seventeen-year-old Jordan McBride is determined to become a photographer. When her long-widowed father unexpectedly comes homes with a new fiancée, Jordan is thrilled. But there is something disconcerting about the soft-spoken German widow. Certain that danger is lurking, Jordan begins to delve into her new stepmother’s past—only to discover that there are mysteries buried deep in her family . . . secrets that may threaten all Jordan holds dear.
In this immersive, heart-wrenching story, Kate Quinn illuminates the consequences of war on individual lives, and the price we pay to seek justice and truth.
