I am looking for something similar to *The Huntress* by Kate Quinn. I thoroughly enjoy all her books but am looking for another novel that centres a lesbian character(s) during the WW2 era. So far Google hasn’t been all that useful to me. Does anyone have any recommendations?

I was pleasantly surprised by Quinn’s *Alice Network* (no LGBT+ character, I’m afraid), and I’ve been curious about her other books…I did not know *Huntress* had lgbt+ main characters! Another pleasant surprise!
I find so much recent historical fiction are cookie-cutter stories that are meant to be ‘uplifting’ without challenging the reader, and featuring the most milquetoast white heterosexual ‘good girl’ protagonists. If *Alice Network* (that I REALLY think would have benefitted from a less blah title…Could even have been a Beaudelaire reference…) and your comment are anything to go by, Quinn doesn’t do that.
Sorry I’m not much help with your question, but I hope you get some answers because now I’m also interested!
