The Winter Horses

by Philip Kerr

4.0(3,162)

In Nazi-occupied Ukraine, a Jewish girl named Kalinka is taken in by Max, an elderly keeper at a wildlife reserve where rare Przewalski’s horses have survived the upheaval of war. When German forces threaten both the child and the animals, survival depends on concealment, courage and the fragile sanctuary offered by the steppe. Kerr combines a wartime escape story with the real history of endangered horses and the violence of the German occupation in Eastern Europe.
