Wars come and go across the headlines and television screens, but for those who survive them, scarred and scattered, they never end. This is a book about post-conflict irresolution, about the lives of those who survived the gulag of concentration camps in north-western Bosnia and about seeking justice for Bosnia today.

But justice is not Reckoning. The book finds that the survivors are lost not only geographically, but in history - betrayed in war, and also in peace.
