These words foreshadow the dramatic events presented with epic scope.

Paris and London on the eve of the French Revolution. This turbulent period is shown through the prism of the fates of a young French aristocrat, an unjustly imprisoned doctor, his daughter, and an English lawyer.

Caught up in the whirlwind of events, they will be put to a severe test...
