About the book: A Five-Star Reader’s Award winner, Winter’s End is a WWII adventure tracing the journey of three young women of the Dutch Resistance from the cobblestoned streets of Nazi-occupied Holland to a remarkable denouement more than 70 years later and a world away. Best-selling author Faye Kellerman calls it, “…a page-turner filled with honest characters who capture your heart and soul.”
About the author: Born in Brooklyn and now a Laguna Woods resident, Barbara Pronin saw her first byline in a community newsletter at age eight and was forever hooked on writing. She has worked over the years as an actress, a probation officer, a news editor, and a substitute teacher, the last of which inspired her first book, a non-fiction guide to effective subbing that is still in print more than 40 years later.
Her eight mysteries earned kudos from such best-selling writers as Mary Higgins Clark and Tony Hillerman, and her new WWII novel, Winter’s End, has won a Five-Star Reader’s Favorite award and is praised by best-selling author Faye Kellerman as, “a page-turner with honest characters who will capture your heart and soul.”
