The setting is in an old house built in the late 1800s that has been remodeled for modern living. The storyline for the Mist of Remembering revolves around quite a bit of past and present mist. There is an unsettling air in the story, quite difficult to pinpoint.The book begins with protagonist, Silver moving into her new old home. She is busy supervising the moving men in ensuring the mirror is safely taken upstairs and ensconced in her bedroom. Having bought the mirror for a high price at an antique shop, she made doubly sure it was not going to crash unexpectedly. She also reminisced about her past boyfriend Alvin who did not quite meet her expectations of a boyfriend.  The normal concerns when a girl is the man of the house and the partner takes on the secondary role of a loafer is mirrored in Silver and her ex-boyfriend Alvin. She had shown him the door and was gleefully thanking herself for having done so.Back to the mirror. She has it setup nicely and was admiring the mirror. Silver had the feeling that the mirror gave her a sense of peace of and calmness. She looks again at the mirror and horror of horrors the background in the mirror reflects old furniture.  The beginning of the twist to the story.Sandra Ross delves into a reincarnation flavor by using a mirror to tell a story. This happens when Silver meets a new landscaper whom she keeps seeing with her in the mirror. A love story that plans on being infinite?  An interesting storyline with a difference.
