In this tour de force--part historical thriller, part modern
adventure--from the New York Times bestselling author of I, Sniper,
Bob Lee Swagger uncovers why World War II's greatest sniper was erased
from history...and why her disappearance still matters today.
Ludmilla "Mili" Petrova was once the most hunted woman on earth, having
raised the fury of two of the most powerful leaders on either side of
World War II: Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler. But Kathy Reilly of The
Washington Post doesn't know any of that when she encounters a brief
mention of Mili in an old Russian propaganda magazine, and becomes
interested in the story of a legendary, beautiful female sniper who
seems to have vanished from history.
Reilly enlists former marine sniper Bob Lee Swagger to parse out the
scarce details of Mili's military service. The more Swagger learns about
Mili's last mission, the more he's convinced her disappearance was no
accident--but why would the Russian government go to such lengths to
erase the existence of one of their own decorated soldiers? And why,
when Swagger joins Kathy Reilly on a research trip, is someone trying to
kill them before they can find out?
As Bob Lee Swagger, "one of the finest series characters ever to grace
the thriller genre, now and forever" (Providence Journal-Bulletin),
races to put the pieces together, Sniper's Honor takes readers across
oceans and time in an action-packed, compulsive read.
