Winter in June: A Rosie Winter Mystery: Rosie Winter Mysteries, cartea 3
Autor Kathryn Miller Hainesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2009
But being a greasepaint soldier isn't as easy as they had hoped. Not only are the cast members surly, the schedules inhumane, and the housing conditions primitive but they also have to travel with a major—and majorly difficult—Hollywood star. But none of that is as bad as living in a war zone, and when tragedy strikes, Rosie and Jayne are left wondering if they are being targeted by the enemy or if something far more sinister is afoot.

Recenzii
“Haines...excels at breezy nostalgia.” — Kirkus Reviews
“Lively....Full of evocative period detail....this entry, for all its humorous and lighthearted moments, builds to a dramatic and sobering conclusion.” — Publishers Weekly
“Firmly set in its wartime locale.” — Booklist
“Haines...always provides a good read.....Winter in June is a terrific summer read.” — Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
“Haines particularly excels at drawing interesting characters, and her story of USO performers in the South Pacific is well-paced.” — Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
“The historical atmosphere is deftly evoked, and Rosie is great company.” — Sullivan County Democrat
“Delightfully nostalgic and entertaining.” — Acadiana LifeStyle (LA)
“Haine’s assured debut brings the WWII era to vivid life.” — Publishers Weekly
“A fun romp.” — Publishers Weekly
“Highly satisfying and clever...a well-constructed theatrical treasure hunt.” — Pittsburgh Magazine
“Haines capably combines homefront ambience (rationing, worries over soldier boyfriends)with plenty of backstage drama…and Rosie and Jane make a winning team of fiesty homefronters.” — Booklist
“Haines brings home the painful price the “greatest generation” paid more gallantly than anyone then knew.” — Publishers Weekly
“Give Kathryn Haines...a standing ovation!” — Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
“What separates “Miss Winter” from the other well-plotted mysteries are the well-researched backdrop of New York in 1943 and the excellent writing.” — Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
“What a blast from the past. Kathryn Miller Haines perfectly captures the feel, sights and sounds of New York in the 1940s. Her Rosie (not a riveter but struggling actress and reluctant sleuth) is feisty, mouthy and a lot of fun.” — Rhys Bowen
“Newcomer Haines, artistic director of a regional-theater company, knowingly describes thespian combativeness and audition politics…But her real success is her pitch-perfect rendering of the early ‘40s, from rationing to java stops at the automat.” — Kirkus Reviews
“A breezy look back at the ’40s, complete with starlets in short skirts and mobsters smoking Cuban cigars.” — Kirkus Reviews
