Luna and her grandmother only have each other. When they lose the flat they live in, they move into the old family home, because that’s all they have left: an old house by the sea, located on a very small island, perhaps the smallest in the world. There, Luna will meet a pretty upset girl and an incredibly mysterious boy. Finding out about the past, discovering a fantastic creature, and tightening ties with the people around you will make you wonder if the island shouldn’t be much bigger than you thought.
