The story takes place during a tumultuous period in Mexico, focusing on the lives of individuals caught in the political chaos of the time. The narrative introduces central characters such as Count Ludovic de la Saulay, a French nobleman, and Oliver, a mysterious adventurer, who find themselves entangled with the political unrest and the guerilla warfare that characterize the landscape of Mexico. At the start of the novel, the reader is immersed in a vivid description of the Mexican landscape as two horsemen travel towards Puebla de los Ángeles. The elder rider, who is revealed to be Oliver, a seasoned adventurer, engages in conversation with Count Ludovic, who is on his way to an arranged marriage. The dialogue between them hints at the political dangers that lie ahead, particularly as they approach a region where bandits and guerilla warfare proliferate. The narrative builds suspense as they overhear ominous signs of an approaching carriage and soldiers, foreshadowing their imminent clash with the harsh realities of guerilla life in Mexico.
