Two young Americans, reflective Peter and Byronic Chase, indulge their youthful appetites in Florence. Over the next 20 years their paths diverge and reconverge. Chase marries into the Italian aristocracy and Peter pursues his passion for Lorenzo, a beautiful young Florentine. The past impinges on the present as the story of Chase’s ancestor, Orvil Starkweather, is revealed including secrets behind the building of New York City’s Central Park. The threads gather together taking them finally on a fateful cruise up the Nile aboard the luxury yacht the Blue Star.
