Description

"How, I thought, and not for the first time, could the old man possibly be related to me? Ramona Koval's parents were Holocaust survivors who fled Europe for a new life in Australia. As a child, Koval gleaned little about their past, but she couldn't shake the suspicion that the man who raised her was not her biological father. One day, long after her beloved mother's death, she decides she must know the truth. Soon she is meeting strangers who might be her relatives and organising DNA tests, trawling through wartime archives and travelling to Polish villages ... Told with Ramona Koval's customary humour, Bloodhound is a moving story of the cost of family secrets."--Back cover.
