1873 - Johanna is a precocious scientist who rebels against the limitations placed on women. Eduard is a stuffy assistant professor at the University of Berlin. When fate brings them together it’s hate at first sight!
But Johanna’s scheme to conduct serious research in the university laboratory collapses, so they form an unlikely alliance. They travel to Florence to study a unique Aztec history that has languished for two centuries in the storied Laurentian Library. As they labor over musty manuscripts in the quiet confines of 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 they struggle to learn Montezuma’s true fate, unseen danger lurks from another who believes 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?
