In the waiting area of an airport, the narrator notices a woman whose clumsy movements capture her attention and evoke memories. When the woman boards the same plane and eventually even appears at the same hotel, the vacation trip turns into an exciting investigation. Like a detective, she gathers material to identify the woman. Flashing images from the past, dreams, and childhood memories revolve around the person in question. With the technique of sharp cuts, flashbacks, and shifts in perspective, the author moves away from traditional storytelling. This gives the narrative flow surprising twists without disrupting the tension that holds until the end. Cordula Haux, MA in Literary Studies and Publisher.
