by Alexandre Dumas

The Countess de Saint-Geran finds herself at the center of a maelstrom of scandal and intrigue when she unexpectedly becomes pregnant in 17th century France. The arrival of her child sparks a web of suspicion and accusations, as her sister-in-law, the Marchioness de Bouille, fuels rumors and seeks to discredit her. Meanwhile, a long-lost relative, the Marquis de Saint-Maixent, emerges, his eyes fixed on the family's wealth and status. Amidst the tangled threads of familial discord and personal agendas, the Countess must navigate a treacherous social landscape to protect her reputation and her child's inheritance.
