A magical book. The first person narrator is Olivia Lagani and her unrelenting nemesis from childhood is her half sister Kwan Li....it is Kwan's haunting predictions, her implementation of the secret senses, her linking of the present with the past that causes this novel to shimmer with meaning-and to leave it in the reader's mind when the book has long been finished.
