This author has a remarkable gift for turning history into deeply complex, spellbinding characters and prose. This is a well researched, intricately woven story that brings a different perspective to the WW2 genre. The story is primarily set after the war, bringing together a motley crew of Nazi hunters, a former Night Witch (an elite female Soviet night bomber), and a young, ambitious, want-to-be photo journalist on a journey for justice. I found this book to be captivating and eye opening. Did you know that in 1973 the INS knew of 53 Nazi war criminals living in the US?
