When Herman Autier leaves England to seek his fortune in the county of Sicily, he wants to leave his family’s betrayal behind and start a new life. Herman has many qualities: he is a knight and a knowledgeable jurist, and he has the ability to turn every experience to his advantage without sacrificing his honor. It is thanks to these skills that Ruggero Altavilla entrusts him with a mission. Sent to the home of Baltasar Flores, a wealthy book merchant, he must study the ancient manuscripts in his library. It is there that he discovers the merchant’s greatest treasure – his daughter, Clara. His dreams seem to come true: a brave and educated woman to love and unmatched wealth to use for his purposes. But the shadow of sin that poisoned his life back in his castle finds him and seems to turn him away from Clara and Sicily forever.
