Brought to you by OBS reviewer AngieThe main character, Sita, has learned the skill of cartography from her formal education. But what makes her the best at her craft is her intuition, and what has been passed down to her through the generations of her family going back to her great grandfather who spent his life as a tour guide in the Himalayas... always searching for - but never finding - the Yeti.As part of a scientific team on Mars, Sita searches for her own Yeti in a very unlikely place and finally discovers that maybe her great-grandfather did see his Yeti afterall!This short story just didn't grasp me. . It was a really interesting idea about what scientists might find on Mars, but in the end I felt no connection to any of the characters. I didn't feel like I was there in the action.This review and more at openbooksociety dot com
