Maggie Walsh, a freelance photo-journalist with a penchant for dangerous situations, receives a tip that the Dalai Lama is dead. In McLeod Ganj, home of the Tibetan community in exile, she confirms the truth of the tip, but before she can get out with her photographs, she is apprehended. While detained, she gets to know a young monk, and when he announces he is going into Tibet to follow the oracle to find the Dalai Lama's reincarnation, she persuades him to take her with him. It is the beginning of an extraordinary physical and spiritual adventure as they first locate the newly born child, and then attempt to return to McLeod Ganj without alerting the Chinese.

Camerawoman Maggie Walsh has filmed everywhere in the world, but when she receives a tip from a contact, she knows she’s about to pull off the biggest scoop of her career. In McLeod Ganj, home of the Tibetan government in exile, the Dalai Lama is secretly dying. Smuggling herself into the compound, Maggie films the footage she knows will make her a fortune. But when her escape is thwarted by Tsering, an idealistic young monk, she finds herself captured and her film confiscated. When she’s finally released, the Dalai Lama’s death has been announced to the world, and Maggie heads to his homeland to capture his people’s reaction. Tsering, too, is heading for Tibet. The reincarnation of the Dalai Lama has been born, and a remote oracle lake will reveal the location of the chosen child. As their paths cross, Tsering and Maggie find themselves drawn together in the most dangerous of quests. For once the Chinese Army discover who they’re looking for, there’s no way they’ll be allowed to leave Tibet alive...
