Después de conseguir el permiso de la priora para salir unas horas, Angeline, interna en el convento de Santa Anna, en la pequeña ciudad lombarda de Este, se puso en camino para hacer una visita. Angeline llevaba muchos meses sin abandonar los muros del convento, por lo que se sintió un tanto atemorizada cuando se vio sola en el camino aunque conocía perfectamente cada palmo del mismo. La condesa de Moncenigo había muerto al dar a luz su segundo hijo y, desde entonces, la madre de Angeline había residido en la villa, por lo que ella se había criado recorriendo aquellos caminos y vericuetos.

Angeline, la protagonista de esta historia, se enfrenta a una historia de amor y desamor, de ilusión y desencuentro. El amor que se ha prometido con Hipólito se empaña, al mismo tiempo que su amistad, casi maternal, con Faustina.
