Résumé

For fans of Kate Quinn and The Nightingale, a gripping story of a young Jewish girl who joins an elite Russian sniper unit and embarks on a mission targeting the highest prize of World War II: Adolph Hitler. With the Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union, Elena Bruskina's world collapses. The ambitious university student and her Jewish family are quickly forced into the Minsk ghetto where thousands are immediately murdered, including her father and brother.
Then her younger sister is publicly executed on false charges and her mother is shot. Alone with her grief, Elena escapes the ghetto, determined to avenge her family's deaths. Heading to Moscow, she enrolls in the Red Army's newly created Central Women's Sniper Training School.  After rigorous training,  she becomes a member of an all-female sniper platoon, a community of brave young women willing to give their lives to defend their country.
Then Elena is chosen for a secret mission-a daring and highly dangerous plan to capture the face of evil itself: Hitler. Inspired by the real-life female snipers and interpreters in the Red Army during World War II, The Night Sparrow is a portrait of friendship, resilience, courage, and sacrifice under extraordinary circumstances.
