" I made it about 15 pages in and cast this aside. The language was lovely, but confusing. So, somehow a young woman wakes up to find a sopping wet man, real or not, I was unclear, on her carpet in the middle of the night. Instead of freaking out and calling the cops, she decides to offer him food and water and let him stay. Really? I had to actually turn back to the front flap to see if there were any clues as to what was happening. Not a good sign. While this book showed promise, and I enjoyed her previous work "The Invisible Mountain" I could find no redeeming value in going further with Perla. "
