A post-war month-long stay at an estate in Messina. A “merry war” between a man and a woman whom everyone (save the couple themselves) knows belong together. A callow youth and an innocent girl. A prince and his bastard brother. And a ridiculous constable (don’t call that man an ass if you know what’s good for you). What could possibly go wrong?
