What will the Rosen's do now that the war is over? (Chapter 17)

Now with the war over, some things which had previously been kept secret finally can be revealed. Annemarie learns of her sister's courage in joining the Resistance and learns that the accident which killed her was no accident at all. The fact that her parents are now able to talk about Lise and the circumstances surrounding her death, however, end the book on a hopeful note that the family will be able to heal itself, and that perhaps Denmark and the rest of the world will find healing as well, one family at a time.
