The Mckenzie family has moved south to Wendake, near Quebec City. Leaving home, nature, their friends and their school is a challenge for Eloise and Leon. While trying to adapt and make new friends, they try to keep their bond with the old ones, but everything moves too fast!

At school, Eloise struggles when she is bullied by a student. And Leon starts doubting his hockey skills: Is he talented or was he the best in Matimekush only because he didn’t have competition? Amid this storm, Leon and Eloise turn to each other for support. Concurrently, a mystery unfolds on every page as we see the twins in a different light. What if, ultimately, life in the South isn’t that different from life in the North?
