A man watches the dark canals of a seaside town from his bedroom; he looks back on his youth, on the people who shaped his life. Danio Cerra's intelligence secured him a place at a prestigious school, even though he was only the son of a tailor. Then, he was sent to serve in the court of a Count - where he soon discovered why he was called "The Beast". Danio's fate changed the moment he realized that the woman he saw entering the Count's apartments that autumn evening was Andrea Ripoli - and she was ready for murder. Born into the bosom of power, Andrea rejected a life of comfort for a life full of danger - a life of freedom. Thus her path crossed with Danio's, in such a dangerous time, in such a dangerous place. Vivid heroes share the story that unfolds here, heroes whose quarrel maintains the balance of the entire world. "Once Upon a Light" is full of shocking events and profound thoughts about the nature of memory, the choices we are called to make in life and the role played by the turning of the wheel of Fortune...
