Set in 19th century Ireland, the narrative explores the aftermath of the Great Famine and a new crop failure that ignites revolutionary thoughts about famine as a political issue rather than a natural disaster. The rise of the Irish Land League, spearheaded by Michael Davitt, marks a significant shift in the fight against inequality. The formation of the Ladies Land League, led by Fanny and Anna Parnell, further amplifies this movement, promising to transform Ireland and influence global perspectives on land and power.
