Suddenly, she and her friends must take up arms to save their country from the Fuhrer's destruction. Handed a rifle, Mila discovers a gift - and months of blood, sweat and tears turn the young woman into a deadly sniper: the most lethal hunter of Nazis. Yet success is bittersweet.
Mila is torn from the battlefields of the eastern front and sent to America while the war still rages.

But when an old enemy from Mila's past joins forces with a terrifying new foe, she finds herself in the deadliest duel of her life.
