✦ Synopsis


Europa, um 1665: Der junge Daniel Waterhouse begeistert sich für die
bahnbrechenden Theorien von Newton und Leibniz. Zugleich werden
Abenteurer und Glücksritter wie der Londoner Gassenjunge Jack Shaftoe
und die von ihm aus einem türkischen Harem befreite Eliza zu treibenden
Kräften einer neuen Zeit. Während überall die Vernunft mit dem blutigen
Ehrgeiz der Mächtigen ringt und jederzeit Katastrophen die politische
Landschaft über Nacht verändern können, kreuzen sich die Wege von
Daniel, Jack und Eliza immer wieder.
