Elena, una joven novicia con el alma dividida entre la fe y la duda, encuentra una noche a un hombre herido en los límites del claustro. Su nombre es Dante Ruggieri, un mafioso italiano en fuga. Para protegerlo, lo esconde. Para salvarse, él se disfraza: ahora es el Padre Lorenzo, un sacerdote con pasado de sangre y mirada de fuego.

Y entre ellos nace un vínculo tan prohibido como inevitable. Pero en el corazón de la Iglesia, ningún pecado se oculta para siempre. Y cuando la verdad salga a la luz, ya será demasiado tarde para volver atrás.
