In a mountain village, where each day is the same as the last, step-siblings Lena and Guillâen, live a poor but tranquil life. Guillâen's destiny is to be a shepherd, and Lena's, like all women of her time, is to form a family. But something unexpected happens: a plane accident in the mountain alters their lives forever. Two French aviators have lost their lives, and Guillâen is the only one who manages to find where their remains have come to rest. The pilot's widow, Countess âUrsula Zalesca, appears just a few weeks later with an unheard-of proposal: take Guillâen to France and bring him up as a son. Someone must keep up with her deceased husband's plane factory, and she believes that the young shepherd is just the person. So Guillâen travels to Lyon, where he studies, learns, soaks up more riches than he could ever have dreamed about, and becomes an engineer. But he doesn't forget about Lena, and they continue an epistolary relationship throughout all those years"
