In the year 1500, at the foot of the walls of Montguerlhe Castle, a young girl lies beneath the frozen moon. She is bloody and unconscious. For being too beautiful and refusing her master, Lord François de Chazeron, he had her husband hanged as he left her wedding, raped, beaten and branded her with a red-hot iron, and then thrown her to the wolves. But the wolves will not touch this broken young girl, since she is one of them. It is said that she speaks to them and even that, on full moon nights, she transforms. Everyone believes her dead, but Isabeau has survived. Hidden in the forest, at the head of her pack of wolves, she has only one thing in mind: Revenge! Isabeau, beautiful and moving, hardened by trials but with a generous heart, takes us from the undergrounds of an Auvergne fortress to the ballrooms of the Louvre, from the Court of Miracles to that of Francis I, from the prophecies of a child who will become Nostradamus to the search for the philosopher's stone.
