The Albanian
About this book
A young woman's search for adventure leads her into a dangerous love affair in pre-war Yugoslavia.
Rosa, from a small Australian town, craves mystery and the exotic. Drawn to Eastern Europe, she arrives in Dubrovnik just before Yugoslavia's collapse. There, she falls for a young Albanian, unaware of the political forces about to engulf them. As their relationship deepens, Rosa becomes entangled in a world of political intrigue and danger, struggling to reconcile her romantic ideals with the harsh realities of war and displacement.
Can Rosa navigate this treacherous landscape and find true connection, or will she become another casualty of a conflict she barely understands? A story of love, loss, and the search for identity in a world on the brink of chaos, The Albanian explores the complexities of human relationships against the backdrop of history's tumultuous events.
