4.0 out of 5 stars
Very unusual story that grows on you on rereading
Although this is not my absolute favorite M. A. Foster book, it is well worth reading. As with all his books, the characters are the focus, but the plot can hold your interest as well.

Look for this and other of Foster's books in used bookstores. They do show up ocassionally.
