In a remote spot in the Guilleries hills, among crags, stands the Clavell farmhouse, a house lived in mostly by women, where a single day holds centuries of memories. On the day the novel takes place, they are getting ready for a party. Among their voices are Joana, who made a pact to find a husband and started a line of descendants that seems cursed; Bernadeta, who as a girl came to see what she should not; and Blanca, who was born without a tongue and only watches.
