She decides to visit Amista, a friend she has been writing to for some time. Amista lives in an isolated house in the Welsh hills and Tinka looks forward to peace and tranquillity. However, when she arrives in Wales she finds the locals have never heard of Amista. Tinka begins to question everything she thought she knew. Who has been writing her letters if Amista doesn't exist, and if she does exist then where is she?
