A small town lost in the hills of Tuscany, 1944. Stella is only fourteen, the youngest member of the local Resistance. She tells no one about her activities, not even her parents. Together with her older brother Akille, she sends messages, supplies and weapons to the partisans hiding in the hills. Every day the threat over the girl thickens, but she will wait for the end of the war in 1945. Waiting to disappear. Seventy years later, an aspiring writer arrives in Tuscany, fleeing a failed marriage, a Scottish gloom, and herself. Tori has a long association with Florence - in her childhood she often visited here with her grandmother, and now her escape to Tuscany seems to her as a way of getting rid of her shabby life, but it turns out not to be a farewell to the past, but the beginning of something completely new. But before she does, she has to get to the bottom of an old war story that centers on the young liaison Stella.
