Ota vastaan kutsu kauas Pohjolaan. Aikaan ja paikkaan, joka elää vain kaukaisissa kuvitelmissamme hämärästä menneisyydestä. Metsiin, joiden pintaa yksikään aura ei ole koskaan puhkaissut. Nämä tarinat kulkevat tuon kaukaisen maan tuulissa ja puissa, ikiaikaisen metsän viileissä kuiskauksissa. 
Vierra on itsepäinen tyttö kainujen heimosta. Kun hän serkkunsa kanssa lähtee pyhälle matkalleen kohti aikuisuutta, lähtevät samalla liikkeelle myös hänen elämänsä suunnan määräävät voimat. 
Pystyykö Vierra rikkomaan kiveen maalatun polkunsa, jonka on määrä johtaa hänet kohti myrskyjen ja vaikeuksien täyttämää elämää? Voiko hän löytää paikkansa heimonsa joukosta, vai onko hänen täytettävä kohtalonsa Kaukamoisena? 
Kaukamoinen aloittaa fantasiatarinoiden sarjan, joka imee voimansa Suomen synkästä, mutta kauniista luonnosta. Sen juuret ovat samalla kertaa sekä mytologiassa että muinaisessa, kirjoittamattomassa historiassamme. Tarinoiden perustukset on laskettu muinaisen maailman ihmeille ja nopeatempoista kerrontaa siivittää kalevalamittainen runous, esi-isiemme runollisen kerronnan kieli.
