I love a book that has a strong heroine and is fast-paced. This one sounds like it would fit that bill. Full of events from the 20's and 30's to me seems like a great story. I have downloaded it and it is on my TBR stack! Nice review!

Thanks for the great review. I enjoy reading historical books and its sounds like this author has weaved into the story several different historical events. Abby sounds like an interesting character and the book sounds great and worth reading. I will add it to my bookshelf :-)

This is an intriguing historical thriller. Action packed and loaded with suspense. It'd make a good movie.

This book seems very elaborate. There are a lot of characters in a lot of different settings. Must have been scary to witness a mop crime.

Judging by the reviews this sounds like a must-read historical fiction book. I am a big fan of mafia genre books/movies. Yet, this story saying to have Al Capone and Adolf Hitler in the storyline sound like a double whammy that I am definitely in for. I am so interested that I, in turn, hope that I am not disappointed when I do get the chance to read the book.

Wartime historical fiction, espionage, and encounters with Hitler. Sounds pretty compelling. Great that the characters were well developed and the errors were minimal. Great review!

A nice historical thriller book "Kill Abby White! Now!" by C.B. Huesing is the story about the lives of four friends Abby White, Dan, Karl, and Esther who survive from attacks when they witnessed a Mafia crime in 1929. After repeated attack they escape to different places and make their livelihood there. It is quite intriguing to note that Abby White encounters Adolf Hitler.
life is only knowing the unknown, we can do this by reading books easily- Online book club is a great place for this. This is what I believe.

Sorry, but I don't suffer from fascination over mob stories. Hitler's involvement doesn't add appeal in my opinion as well. Therefore I will have to skip this book.
