Spain in 1906. The Duke de Richleau has not yet succeeded his father, and is still the Count de Quesnoy. Anarchism, then, permeated every country in Europe. Not a night passes without groups of fanatics meeting in cellars to plan attempts with knives, pistols or bombs against the representatives of law and order. An historic bomb outrage gives de Quesnoy ample cause to vow vengeance on the assassins. His attempt to penetrate anarchist circles in Barcelona nearly costs him his life. In San Sebastian, Granada and Cadiz he hunts and is hunted by them in a ruthless vendetta. Against this background a bitter-sweet romance develops between him and the beautiful Condesa Gulia.
