"""A gripping narrative of wartime intrigue and a shocking expos� of the brutality that can lurk in the hearts of even the most unlikely people, Douglas Weissman's Girl in the Ashes is a World War Two novel with a major difference. Focusing on Odette LeFebvre, a young nurse navigating the complexities of life in Nazi-occupied Paris while using the chaos as a cover for her serial murdering of abusive men, the book presents the many horrors of war through a truly unique lens. Brutal, raw, and sadly realistic, Odette's attempts to survive the occupation, the deadly cat-and-mouse game she finds herself embroiled in with the sadistic Dr. Ilse, and her own inner darkness make for a compelling and often disturbing read.""-Erin Britton, Los Angeles Book Review"
