The Orphan Collector is set in Philadelphia in 1918 during the outbreak of the Spanish flu. The story focuses on Pia, the daughter of German immigrants, and Bernice, a grieving mother who has just lost her son to the flu. The novel alternates between their two points of view.

I found the First Look to be very interesting! I enjoy reading historical fiction, especially ones set in a time period I don't know much about. The author did a good job of bringing the city and characters to life. I am curious to know what happens to the characters and would like to read more.
