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 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.
This audiobook includes an episode of the Book Club Girl Podcast, featuring an interview with Kate Quinn about The Huntress.

Mooi en aangrijpend verhaal, goed opgebouwd. Het karakter van de hoofdpersoon is gelaagd en genuanceerd, dat maakt het verhaal extra sterk en aangrijpend. Ik heb ervan genoten! Zeker ook omdat het zo enorm goed is voorgelezen door Saskia Maarleveld (zoals zij altijd doet)!

Dit boek gelezen voor de boekenclub. Het duurde ruim 4 uur voor ik er een beetje in kwam en ik moest bewust mijn aandacht erbij houden anders kwam de tekst niet binnen. Als het niet voor de boekenclub was geweest had ik dit boek vermoedelijk niet uitgeluisterd. Het concept waarin een voormalig Nazi en ook nog een vrouw na de oorlog wordt opgejaagd is wel interessant en de personages ook maar op de een of andere manier pakte het me niet. Ook hoopte ik nog op een plot twist die niet kwam. Het verhaal is vanaf het begin al duidelijk. Maar vele voor mij zijn lyrisch over dit boek dus wie weet ligt het aan mij.

Fantastisch! Gelaagd, interessante karakters en meeslepend. Ondanks dat je als lezer dingen al vermoed, is het boek verrassend en bovenal constant boeiend

Loved it. Very exciting, though sad reality. Hurray for the women who fought during the war.

Beste "historische fictie" schrijver ooit. Enorm spannend boek, onvoorspelbaar en toch geloofwaardig... kan dit echt gebeurd zijn? Echt geweldig geschreven. En ook fantastisch voorgelezen.
