The Collaborator’s Daughter by Eva Glyn (HarperCollins UK, One More Chapter)

It's never too late for new beginnings.

After the deaths of both parents, Fran decides, at the age of 65, to discover the cause of the death of the biological father she never knew. He was killed by partisans as a collaborator. She has only one memory of her father, a necklace with Jewish symbols. 

Fran finds herself alone in a wonderful Dubrovnik, but she soon meets friendly people who are ready to help her. Is she actually ready for the truth? 

The author strategically maneuvers through the events of the war, describes the whole atmosphere with a feeling for the people, and does not take sides as she is aware of all the historical events in the troubled Balkans. 

A heartwarming story about love, friendship, and new beginnings.
