The premature death of an unbaptized child, the dilemma of a kind-hearted villager, the visit of a beggar, a pomegranate and a cat. The voice of Edith Piaf, the remorse of a monk, a sexual crime, the calculations of two mathematics students. A visit to the fish market, a police officer, a private beach and the secret that the golden numbers may hide. Fourteen stories set in Crete, starting from the early twentieth century, extending to the present day, and intertwined like the fate of their heroes.
