On the run from his past and his community, Jaber becomes a fugitive and assumes the identity of a sacred heir—setting off a ruse in a forgotten village awaiting a saviour to revive its will to endure.

The story is set in a fiery period at the end of the 19th century in a tense atmosphere charged with the premonitions of the First World War. After Assi Al-Zand's discharge from military service and his return to his village on the banks of the Orontes river, he is caught up in a series of conflicts and conspiracies involving the region's leading political figures.

Rola, Umm Fawaz’s expat granddaughter, returns to her family home for a short mission. But an urgent incident forces her to stay in the countryside longer than she had planned…

The events follow a series of crimes starting with a smuggling operation that leaves Hajj Salem paralyzed and Abu Aziz dead, followed by the assassination of Judge Saba Ezzat and her husband Aws's confession.
