What is Mysterious Traveller about?

In the vast African desert, seasoned guide Issa discovers a baby girl, Mariama, sheltered in a cave during a fierce sandstorm. Raising her as his own, Mariama becomes Issa's eyes as he loses his sight. Years later, a mysterious traveller arrives, bearing a medallion matching Mariama's, unveiling secrets that will transform their lives forever.
