The Franco-Spanish War (1635-1659) roughly breaks the fate of a gifted boy from a prosperous family, depriving him of his father: he tears him out of his usual environment and throws him into a different environment - to the very bottom, beyond the line of the law. From now on, his home is a pirate ship, his family are seasoned sea wolves. Years later, he becomes their leader. The fierce soul of the young captain strangely combines decency and prudence, cynicism and nobility. To the sound of blades, love bursts into his life. But heaven does not forgive past sins. This is a story about true friendship, love, loyalty and self-sacrifice.
