Little Margarita does not remember her parents, who died in her early childhood, but she knows she belongs to the glorious aristocratic family de la Roc. Bold and rebellious, she often frustrates her kind elderly nanny Damien, who struggles to... instill proper manners in her charge. Neither of them knows yet that terrible trials await them ahead due to the evil will of the powerful guardian of the girl, Jean-François de Roberval, who, having seized the rich inheritance of his young cousin, will attempt to suppress her will as well.
The story of the survival of Margarita de la Roc is all the more remarkable as it is based on real facts described in treatises from the time of the Great Geographical Discoveries. The plot, frightening and captivating, is adorned with a luxurious historical backdrop and subtle stylization, which transform the narrative into an exquisite tapestry.
