DEBUT American Adia Kensington will do anything for her Arabian horses, including remaining in Poland as the threat of another world war looms. In fact, she has a daring plan to move the horses and save them from the Nazi war machine, but the Blitzkrieg is faster and more furious than anyone expected. Protecting the horses and an orphan stable boy proves nearly impossible. Meanwhile, British aristocrat and spy Bret Conway finds himself trying to protect Poland's equine legacy while stealing secrets from right under the noses of the Nazis. When the Russians come, however, he must make hard choices about what and whom to save. Danger lurks at every turn, friends betray neighbors, and some enemies prove to be allies in this fast-paced novel. VERDICT Miller's debut is a sweeping historical romance and spy thriller rolled up into a novel highlighting a little-known aspect of World War II. For fans of the deep research of Amanda Barratt and the war-era romances of Sarah Sundin. Miller is definitely a rising star in the genre.
