Michael Abbot, a civil engineer employed by a consultancy company in Kingston-upon-Thames, is nominated as manager of a small team overseeing the supply of specialised equipment for a project to expand oil refinery capacity in Algeria. The principle administrators of the contract are based in Paris, and during his premier visit to their prestigious offices, Michael meets a young Japanese woman who is destined to change his life. The chance meeting takes place in February 1983, but Michael is haunted by a sense of déja vu which compels him to believe that he has met the young woman before. The haunting memory is actually a dream which he experienced exactly one year before, and as he struggles to come terms with the possibility of a telepathic liaison, he finds himself becoming infatuated with the young woman. Thus, what begins as a business trip to Paris, evolves into a complicated journey to Japan, involving a dramatic adjustment to his current lifestyle and the adoption of a cultural perception that is essential if he is to fulfil his desire to make this young woman the centre of his world. All characters in this novel are fictional, they participate in a sensitive and passionate romantic mystery which is recommended for mature readers.
