It has been four years since Caroline Lebrun, 17, moved with her parents in one of the chicest neighborhoods of Port-au-Prince. In this house which was the dwelling of Tonton Blain, a friend of the family, Caroline created a world of her own with art at the center of it all. But quickly, she had to share this universe with her cousin Eva, an enthusiast for anything cosmetics. Through this beauty-focused cousin, she meets Ludovic, a young man whom by all appearances is a serious and impenetrable character. A series of enigmatic messages seemingly dated from the 19th century will push the three characters to delve into a period of the history of Haiti until now forgotten. During some intense months, the trio will dissect and try to uncover the truth behind the messages. Will the friends be able to bring the past to the present despite their quest being discarded as youthful fantasy? Will Caroline, Eva, and Ludovic discover the Cause and defend it ?
