Acerca de esta escucha
Inspired by a true incident that took place in Poland in 1941 but was concealed for 60 years, Diane Armstrong's gripping novel is a detective story that is part mystery, part history, and part forensic investigation. It is also a tale of love, loss, and unimaginable sacrifice.

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.

This is the way the world ends...for the last time. It starts with the great red rift across the heart of the world's sole continent, spewing ash that blots out the sun. It starts with death, with a murdered son and a missing daughter. It starts with betrayal, and long dormant wounds rising up to fester. This is the Stillness, a land long familiar with catastrophe, where the power of the earth is wielded as a weapon. And where there is no mercy.

Historia
When farmers cutting turf in an Irish peat bog make a grisly discovery, the perfectly intact body of a young woman with long red hair, archaeologist Cormac O'Callaghan and pathologist Nora Gavin are thrown together by their shared scientific interest in human remains. Because of the preservative effect of the bog, it is difficult to tell whether the body has lain there for two decades, two centuries, or two millennia.

Historia
Mad scientists have never had it so tough. In super-hero comics, graphic novels, films, TV series, video games, and even works of what may be fiction, they are besieged by those who stand against them, devoid of sympathy for their irrational, megalomaniacal impulses to rule, destroy, or otherwise dominate the world as we know it. It’s just not fair. So those of us who are so twisted and sick that we love mad scientists have created this guide.

Excellent Story
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was a real eye opener to the tragic things that can & unfortunately do happen during war times. I highly recommend this book. It is the first book I have read (or listened to in this case) of Diane Armstrong & I really like her style of writing. I shall be keeping an eye out for more of her work.

Slow start, got better
I also gave up on this book in the first two hours. It just wasn't grabbing me and seemed to be more "blah blah blah" than story development. It did get better and I am glad I finished it, but I wish the beginning of the story was better.

Excellent
The narrator does an incredible job! Not just bringing life and performance to a great story but she was able to manage many characters without leaving you guessing who it was!
And the story... Great! Well researched and written
How did we humans do such horrible things to each other and sadly why do we continue to do them?

One of my all time favorites!
At the beginning of this story, I thought it was going to be a mystery set in Sydney. Thinking it was to be a run of the mill story, I put it aside and listened to only a bit each day. Then all of a sudden, the scenario changed and I was listening all day long. The narrator is fantastic. The text is rich. The story is incredible.

Rewarding. Worth the time to finish.
Slow build up & Character development . halfway through the book I thought. minimal events have passed & the book continues that way until all the little personality & character traits, circumstances fall into place. Mildly predictable but worth every minute once said & done. I'll listen to this again. Performance was great.

Excellently developed story, writing, and narration.
Just finished listening to Winter Journey second time in a row, so the characters and time and place are vivid. Though it took me a while to get into the story the first time, it builds and creates a memorable narrative. It was not until I finished that I learned that this book is based upon actual events, and I am grateful to Diane Armstrong for her excellent research and writing expertise. With each reading my closeness to the many characters grew. It is an unusually satisfying read.

A great listening experience
A captivating story which was beautifully read. This was a book that I took a chance on as I hadn't read a review or heard about it prior to download. At times heart-wrenching but a definite page turner that kept my interest until the last word.

Harrowing, and riveting.
I could not stop listening. The first few chapters were a bit of a slog, as the story took a while to develop. However, as the plot progressed (or, perhaps, regressed), I found myself to be involved into the soul of the book. Does good triumph over evil in the end? Can tears and confessions ever erase the pain of the past? I found this not to be the case. Time only dims memories, not pain.
