BRIEF SYNOPSIS: Stella Flanders is the oldest woman on Goat Island. In her entire life she has never crossed the reach that separates the isle from the mainland. She has spent her whole existence in that small, close-knit community that is almost as welcoming as a family and in which she has always had everything she needed. Maybe now the time has come for her to embark on that journey she never wanted to undertake...
