New York, 1871 – Flore, a country girl and Martial, the son of a viscount, secretly leave France and head for California to start a new life and set up a vineyard. As they steam across the continent in a dreamlike first-class carriage, Flore strives to adjust to Martial’s elegant world. Will she be an asset to him or a source of scorn? They have only gone as far as Chicago, when their plans collapse. Someone has betrayed them. Furious at his son’s elopement, Martial’s father cuts off his income. No stranger to hardship, Flore keeps them afloat as far as Nevada, however, the harsh American frontier proves a challenge too far for Martial. He finds refuge in Icaria, a utopian settlement where everything is free, but dissension is rife, even in Paradise. When all the money has gone, will love be enough to see them through?
