Set in 1721, the narrative follows young Adam Hanaway as he journeys from England to Lisbon after his father's unexpected death, hoping to find fortune with his wealthy uncle. However, his aspirations are challenged by the stark contrast of Lisbon's opulence and the oppressive reality of the Portuguese Inquisition. The story intricately weaves themes of ambition, loss, and the clash between enlightenment and tradition in a vibrant yet dangerous cultural landscape.
