| Against the historical backdrop of the plot organised by Queen Catherine de Médicis to stamp out the power of her enemy Admiral Coligny - a plot that was to end in the Massacre of Saint Bartholomew's Day - her chambermaid Tinella is caught up in a passionate love story, unaware that she is being duped. All the action takes place in a single day, the day before the massacre.
The original manuscript in Italian is available: La congiura della Regina.
