5/29/2023 0 Comments A Song of War by Kate QuinnThe story of a Nazi murderess is, sad to say, incredibly relevant to the United States in 2019. Gradually, their fortunes will coincide with that of this ruthless killer, and none of their lives will remain the same. She is also pursued by Tony (an American), Ian (a Brit), and Nina (a former Russian fighter pilot), who each have their own reasons for wanting to pursue this dangerous and deadly woman. She comes into the life of young Jordan, an aspiring photographer living in Boston, in the form of Annalise, her father’s wife-to-be. The novel centers on the woman known as The Huntress, a Nazi who was responsible for the cold-blooded murder of several children in the last days of the war. Having been quite thoroughly convinced that, in Quinn’s capable hands, even modernity could make for good historical fiction, I waited for the release of The Huntress with baited breath. The novel kept me captivated from the beginning to end. I have to admit I was a bit disappointed when she moved away from antiquity and the Renaissance into the 20th Century, but then I read The Alice Network, and all of my doubts were utterly swept away. I’ve been a fan of Kate Quinn’s historical novels for some years now.
