Given a rifle and sent to join the fight, Mila must forge herself from studious girl to deadly sniper--a lethal hunter of Nazis known as Lady Death. When news of her three hundredth kill makes her a national heroine, Mila finds herself torn from the bloody battlefields of the Eastern Front and sent to America on a goodwill tour. Still reeling from war wounds and devastated by loss, Mila finds herself isolated and lonely in the glittering world of Washington, DC--until an unexpected friendship with First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt and an even more unexpected connection with a silent fellow sniper offer the possibility of happiness. But when an old enemy from Mila's past joins forces with a deadly new foe lurking in the shadows, Lady Death finds herself battling her own demons and enemy bullets in the deadliest duel of her life. 541 $d 20230605. 600 1 $a Pavlychenko, Liï¸ u︡dmyla MykhaÄlivna, $d 1916-1974 $v Fiction. 600 1 $a Roosevelt, Eleanor $d 1884-1962 $v Fiction. 650 1 $a World War, 1939-1945 $z Soviet Union $v Fiction. 650 $a Snipers $v Fiction. 650 $a Women soldiers $v Fiction. 650 $a Librarians $z Russia $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. 655 7 $a War fiction. 655 7 $a Biographical fiction. 655 7 $a Spy fiction. 941 $a 3 952 $l LBPB837 $d 20240111055714.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025015206.0 952 $l NWPC663 $d 20230819010203.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=AFC8A9963E5511EE9D75128132ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
