Summary
Throughout their childhood in the dusty cane fields of Saint Michael, Isabel and her older brother Isaias have been inseparable. Life is simple, and for Isabel, happiness is playing by the empty fountain in the village square. But when Isaias runs away to become a musician, promising to return, Isabel's life changes irrevocably.
