The people of TeJÉ have never had a visitor. Not once. Not ever.
But they have been expecting one. For a long time, they've believed the story of the Long Awaited, a person who will arrive on their island and tell them what their fate will be.
So when eleven-year-old Pascale's lifeboat comes ashore, they wonder if she is the one they have been waiting for all these years.
But Pascale doesn't know if she is the Long Awaited. She doesn't even know how she got here.
When strange events start happening, Pascale begins to wonder if she is the Long Awaited after all.
