"Vous croyez aux signes ? La foudre qui frappe une voiture dont vous sortez à l''instant, un chat noir qui traverse votre chemin... Vous voyez ce que je veux dire ? Le hasard, peut-être. Moi, je n''y ai jamais cru, à ce genre de trucs. Avant de le rencontrer, lui". Chez Anna est un petit café où le temps s''est arrêté. Katrina y vit paisiblement avec sa grand-mère. Jusqu''au jour où la magie et la poésie s''immiscent dans sa vie.

A boy who tells her that he has a love story. A boy who believes he''s Cupid. As Alice begins to hear Errol''s voice in her head, and begins to see things she can''t explain, she must face the truth - that she''s either inherited her mother''s madness, or Errol is for real.
