Wednesday’s are going to be my day to highlight a book I’m anxiously waiting for. There’s so many good books always coming out which is great for us book lovers.
This weeks pick is The Huntress by Kate Quinn. I’ve long been a fan of Kate’s novels from my early days of blogging and I still am. The Huntress is to be published on February 26 by William Morrow.
Gooddreads Description
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, reckless Nina Markova grows up on the icy edge of Soviet Russia, dreaming of flight and fearing nothing. When the tide of war sweeps over her homeland, she gambles everything to join the infamous Night Witches, an all-female night bomber regiment wreaking havoc on Hitler’s eastern front. But when she is downed behind enemy lines and thrown across the path of a lethal Nazi murderess known as the Huntress, Nina must use all her wits to survive.
British war correspondent Ian Graham has witnessed the horrors of war from Omaha Beach to the Nuremberg Trials. He abandons journalism after the war to become a Nazi hunter, yet one target eludes him: the Huntress. Fierce, disciplined Ian must join forces with brazen, cocksure Nina, the only witness to escape the Huntress alive. But a shared secret could derail their mission, unless Ian and Nina force themselves to confront it.
Seventeen-year-old Jordan McBride grows up in post WWII Boston, determined despite family opposition to become a photographer. At first delighted when her long-widowed father brings home a fiancée, Jordan grows increasingly disquieted by the soft-spoken German widow who seems to be hiding something. Armed only with her camera and her wits, Jordan delves into her new stepmother’s past and slowly realizes there are mysteries buried deep in her family. But Jordan’s search for the truth may threaten all she holds dear.
Lucky for me I’m already reading and loving it!
I bet a lot of people are looking forward to that one.
I’m sure there are Kathy. She has a lot of fans.
Thanks! Now on order. Would be great if you also shared this over at Books You Loved: December
Hi Carole, hope you’ll enjoy it. I’ll head over and add some of my faves to the list.
I’m looking forward to reading this one too!
Hope you enjoy it Laura. Thanks for popping by.
Dar, I didn’t realize you were blogging again. So nice to see you!
This book sounds good so I’ll watch for it. I’ve only read one other by the author.
Now I’m adding you to my reader 🙂
Mary, I’m trying to get back into it. I kind of started to miss it and the community.
I didn’t realize you were blogging again either! Welcome back! Well, I’m on a break right now, but I’ll be back around after Christmas. I’m reading The Alice Network right now for our mystery book group meeting in early January. Doing a read/listen combo. Loving it. And I did know that this new one was coming. Can’t wait and plan to share this with the book group.
Kay, thank you. I popped into your blog and saw that you’ll be back soon. A break is always nice. I loved The Alice Network as well. I listened to the audio and it was great. Can’t wait to see your thoughts on it.
