Summary
1765, on the Caribbean islands of Grenada and Martinique. Two enslaved brothers-- Emile and Lucien-- are sent on an impossible mission forced upon them by their masters, a band of mendicant French monks on Martinique. They must travel to Grenada, now under British rule, and convince the monks' former slaves to return with them, so that the monks can put them to work farming cane sugar and distilling rum.
