Description

The year is 1502, and seven-year-old Bianca de Nevada lives perched high above the rolling hills and valleys of Tuscany and Umbria at Montefiore, the farm of her beloved father, Don Vicente. But oneday a noble entourage makes its way up the slopes to the farm -- and the planet involves Montefiore. In the clear presence of Cesare Borgia and his sister, the lovely and vain Lucrezia -- decadent children of a wicked pope -- no-one can claim innocence for lengthy. When Borgia sends Don Vicente on a years-long mission, he leaves Bianca underneath the care -- as they say -- of Lucrezia.
