The emotional and plot twists and turns are delightful and challenging. Not giving anything away is tough with this one, but I'll just say the old man's memories are so well written, it's as if you are in the mind of a man who has felt his life slowly drift. And interspersed, the characters who he has loved, the friendships he wished he had, and the girl trying to uncover the mystery.
