Summary :
Spring 1942. A soldier still based at the Citadel of Quebec, Toshan prepares to leave for Europe, leaving Hermine in Quebec, desperate. As soon as the handsome mixed-race man leaves America, the poor woman will have to face the death of several of her loved ones, as well as the disturbing disappearance of Kiona, her half-sister. Tempted to give in to the love of Ovide Lafleur, whom she meets by chance in Chicoutimi during her search for Kiona, Hermine feels lost. Little by little, she feels desire for the man who makes her laugh and demonstrates refined intelligence and great culture.
But fate watches over her and, thanks to her manager, Octave Duplessis, Hermine embarks for Paris for a singing tour. It is in the west of France that she will finally find Toshan, seriously injured, while he was trying to save a young Jewish woman and her son from certain death. In a state of shock, he refuses to speak, is cold and distant with Hermine, who does not understand his attitude. Their relationship seems in real danger, and despite their return to Lac Saint-Jean, nothing helps. Withdrawn by an immense feeling of guilt, the Lord of the Forests is only a shadow of himself. Fortunately, Kiona, recovered, will be able to restore their faith in this great love that has always united them.
A magnificent, tumultuous Quebec saga, full of romance and adventure; a hymn to the strength of love that conquers all obstacles.
