A powerful, moving novel that interrogates our relationship with the animal world.

It is the year 2035. A terrible virus rages unchecked, forcing people all over the world into quarantine. In her orphanage, Ombeline is bored. She can't stand lockdown and doesn't get along with the headmistress. Luckily, Léontine et Malaurie, 4 & 14 respectively, are like sisters to her. Jacinthe, the only adult who looks after her, knows her secret: Ombeline can talk to animals. Not talk, really, so much as exhale gently, look into their eyes, and communicate with them. Her life turns upside down when she learns a white tiger's escaped the city zoo. What mysteries lurk behind its sudden disappearance? Will she be able to communicate with such a fierce creature?
