The island of mists and miracles

Mas, Victoria2025
Books, Manuscripts
In 1830 a young novice called Catherine Laboure was granted a vision of the Virgin Mary. Nearly 200 years later, Sister Anne is also waiting for a sign. Which is why she accepts a mission to go to a tiny community on an island just off the coast of Brittany. But it is not Sister Anne who receives a vision. Instead it is Isaac, an otherworldly teenager, who is found on a promontary, transfixed, unable to utter more than the words 'I see'. The event soon becomes headline news and the world descends on the small island, opening old wounds and unleashing a chain of events no-one could have foreseen.
