About the show

During the final years of Napoleon’s Empire, Georges de Coûfontaine brings the captured Pope to his cousin Sygne’s estate. Toussaint Turelure, the former servant responsible for her parents’ deaths and now an imperial prefect, pressures Sygne to marry him in exchange for the Pope’s release, forcing her to choose between her love for Georges and the hostage’s rescue.
