On the rocky northern shores of Sicily stands a lonely castle, the home of the aristocratic Mazzini family. The marquis of Mazzini has remarried and gone away to live with his new wife, abandoning his two daughters -- sweet-natured Emilia and lively, imaginative Julia -- to wander the labyrinthine corridors alone.
