...compulsively readable historical fiction...[a] powerful novel
about unusual women facing sometimes insurmountable odds with
grace, grit, love and tenacity." - Kristin Hannah, The Washington
Post Named one of best books of the year by Marie Claire and
Bookbub "If you enjoyed "The Tattooist of Auschwitz," read "The
Huntress," by Kate Quinn. The Washington Post From the author of
the New York Times and USA Today bestselling novel, THE ALICE
NETWORK, comes another fascinating historical novel about a
battle-haunted English journalist and a Russian female bomber pilot
who join forces to track the Huntress, a Nazi war criminal gone to
ground in America. 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 fiancee, 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.
