520    "The New York Times bestselling author of The Rose Code 
       returns with an unforgettable World War II tale of a quiet
       bookworm who becomes history's deadliest female sniper. 
       Based on a true story. In 1937 in the snowbound city of 
       Kiev (now known as Kyiv), wry and bookish history student 
       Mila Pavlichenko organizes her life around her library job
       and her young son--but Hitler's invasion of Ukraine and 
       Russia sends her on a different path. 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. Still reeling from war wounds 
       and devastated by loss, Mila finds herself isolated and 
       lonely in the glittering world of Washington, DC--until an
       unexpected friendship with First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt 
       and an even more unexpected connection with a silent 
       fellow sniper offer the possibility of happiness. But when
       an old enemy from Mila's past joins forces with a deadly 
       new foe lurking in the shadows, Lady Death finds herself 
       battling her own demons and enemy bullets in the deadliest
       duel of her life. Based on a true story, The Diamond Eye 
       is a haunting novel of heroism born of desperation, of a 
       mother who became a soldier, of a woman who found her 
       place in the world and changed the course of history 
       forever." --|cPublisher marketing.
