Seven generations of women from the Flores family live under a gypsy curse: all men who join the family, whether through marriage or birth, die prematurely.
The story unfolds between modern-day Rio de Janeiro and the rural Pernambuco region in 1918. Young Alice receives a lace handkerchief as a family heirloom and discovers it contains a secret message: a tale of violence that occurred a century earlier. To unravel its mystery, she must travel back in time to uncover the history of her grandmothers.
The novel explores themes such as women's solidarity, the struggle for freedom, and resistance, showing how lacemaking became a means of financial independence for the women in that family. It also addresses the oppression suffered by Eugenia, a young woman forced into marriage with a wealthy man, and her attempt to escape that fate through secret symbols embroidered in lace.
