Bretagne, début du XIXe siècle. Dans un village ravagé par les guerres napoléoniennes, Jeanne Tanguy, jeune paysanne au tempérament indomptable, lutte pour survivre et protéger sa petite sœur Marie de la brutalité de leur mère.

Mais lorsque Clara est capturée et condamnée à la prison à vie, l'énigmatique directeur de l'académie, le prince Kaelis, lui offre son salut – à certaines conditions.
