Venice, late of the sixteenth century: a sprawling city and ruthless when even the walls have eyes, the Doge use an iron fist and the Inquisition suspicious of everyone and not think twice to send for a poor man and give him two lengths of rope . La Serenissima observing, listening and condemnation. Even unfairly. And it is precisely to escape unfounded accusation that Michael, a young mason, is forced to embark on a jail, without even leaving all the time to say goodbye to his beautiful wife, Bianca, just seventeen. Banished from Venice, rowing on a ship that roams the Mediterranean office of sequins and spices, and without hope of returning soon, Michael will live extraordinary adventures in the waves, islands and ports of the mare nostrum, until he lands in the lands of Sultan. To survive, my thoughts always turned to White, a boy, ignorant and inexperienced man will be smart, brave and strong. Meanwhile, Bianca is completely alone in the city, including the palaces of the lords and the ghetto. His temperament tenacious and proud will be met with evidence if possible to touch harder than Michael, and important meetings no less terrible and the wait in the maze of alleys and streets, among the strong scents of the shops of apothecaries, that of bread baked in the oven neighborhood, the torso where cold water to wash clothes and mattresses that are just lousy bed for the poor.
