In this tour de forceâpart historical thriller, part modern adventureâfrom the New York Times bestselling author of I, Sniper, Bob Lee Swagger uncovers why World War IIâs greatest sniper was erased from historyâŠand why her disappearance still matters today.
Ludmilla âMiliâ 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 doesnât 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 Miliâs military service. The more Swagger learns about Miliâs last mission, the more heâs convinced her disappearance was no accidentâbut 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, âone of the finest series characters ever to grace the thriller genre, now and foreverâ (Providence Journal-Bulletin), races to put the pieces together, Sniperâs Honor takes readers across oceans and time in an action-packed, compulsive read.
