1873 - Johanna
is on academic probation at the University of Berlin for her stubborn refusal
to follow the prescribed path for a woman. Eduard is a stuffy assistant
professor, slowly dying of tuberculosis. When fate brings them together it's
hate at first sight! But the collapse of Johanna's bold research scheme, and
the reclusive Eduard's unexpected recovery, lead to an unlikely alliance. They
travel to Florence to study a unique Aztec history that has languished in the
storied Laurentian Library for two centuries. As they labor over musty
manuscripts in the library designed by Michelangelo, the young scholars begin
to develop a mutual respect - and an unexpected friendship. When they stumble
on a coded document that Eduard is unable to decipher by himself, he begins to
understand just how much he needs Johanna. As the scholars struggle to learn
Montezuma's true fate, unseen danger lurks from others who believe the
mysterious monograph holds the key to a vast fortune. Will Eduard and Johanna
find Montezuma's lost treasure - or something even more valuable - before it's
too late?
