Tatiana is a little girl who goes on a trip with her parents to the Las Baulas National Marine Park in Guanacaste and whose nap on the beach is interrupted by a mangrove hummingbird, who asks her for help to investigate what happened to Aura, the leatherback turtle, who disappeared without a trace and was supposed to be back to lay her eggs. This search becomes a journey full of adventures and interesting encounters with many species that tell them about what is happening in the park and surrounding environments and how to prevent species like Aura from disappearing.
