In that branch of Lake Como that turns at noon, the shadows lengthen and darken as a cold wind, a harbinger of misfortune, blows from the nearby mountains. In the dark shades of the waters, the face of a future groom is reflected, in the prelude to the happy ending of a love story. But the idyll between Lofosco, affectionately called Fosco, and his promised bride, Lucilla, is disrupted by a whirlwind of sinister events, turning the brightest day of their lives into a merciless nightmare. Through the challenges of a world suspended between an impending war and the anguish of the plague, Fosco embarks on a race against time to find his beloved and save his soul, while the heralds of the Plague threaten to engulf every individual. Helped by hidden forces and pursued by aberrant creatures, will Fosco be able to find Lucilla? And when he does, what will be the nature of their bond? Is it really love, or just a distorted obsession?
