Dancing on Knives

A twisty, timely tale of love and trauma, recalling the turbulent history of Eastern Europe. Poised on the edge of magic realism, this is a story for our time, about the dark legacy of war and the unexpected roads that lead to redemption.
Laura, a brilliant young Bosnian refugee, must confront her harrowing past when she falls in love with British diplomat Adam, whose job takes them to Serbia - the country that once invaded her own. With Adam preoccupied in his pursuit of war criminal General Ratko Mladic, Laura is troubled by familiar ghostly figures whose reminiscences about the city she once fled hold a dangerous allure. Can they help her? Or is she losing her mind? As Laura grapples with these hidden secrets, she uncovers a defiant power within herself. Poised on the edge of magic realism, this is a story for our time, about the dark legacy of war and the unexpected roads that lead to redemption.
