Twenty-five-year-old Julie Jacobs is devastated by the death of her aunt Rose, who has left her entire estate to Julie's twin sister. The only inheritance Julie receives is a key to a safety-deposit box in Siena, Italy, which belonged to her mother. This key sparks a transformative journey into the past of her ancestor, Giulietta Tolomei. In 1340, after the murder of her parents, Giulietta is smuggled into Siena, where she meets Romeo. Their doomed love story disrupts medieval Siena and inspires generations, culminating in Shakespeare’s tragedy. As Julie explores the history of Romeo and Giulietta, she finds the lines between past and present blur in the ancient city. Her quest for the treasure they left behind exposes her to danger—superstitions, ancient grudges, and personal vendettas. Encountering descendants of the feuding families, Julie fears the curse of “A plague on both your houses!” may still hold power, making her its next target. Only someone like Romeo could save her from this fate, but his tale seems to have ended long ago. Or has it?
