Synopsis
1786. Le jour où son petit frère disparaît, Alma part sur ses traces, loin de sa famille et de la vallée d'Afrique qui les protégeait du reste du monde. Au même moment, dans le port de Lisbonne, Joseph Mars se glisse clandestinement à bord d'un navire de traite, La Douce Amélie. Il est à la recherche d'un immense trésor. Dans le tourbillon de l'Atlantique, entre l'Afrique, l'Europe et les Caraïbes, leurs quêtes et leurs destins les mènent irrésistiblement l'un vers l'autre.
