5.0

Kate Quinn is a master of her craft. While it is difficult, given the time frame, for these books to be as well-researched as her books about the world wars, Quinn tries to rely on history and historical figures to move her narrative forward. I could not put down a single book in the whole series until I’d finished them all.
