When Diego de Godoy leaves his native Seville and takes ship for the New World, he is hoping to find a treasure that will make him worthy of the hand in marriage of the beautiful Isabella de Quintallina. He finds more than he bargained for. Fighting alonside Cortés and his conquistadors. Diego falls in love with a Mexican woman and she initiates him into the sensuous secret of chocolate. From the moment he is separated from his lover, however, Diego and his ever-faithful greyhound Pedro are destined to wander throughout the world and down the centuries in search of the fulfilment they knew for that brief time, seeking the perfection of chocolate and the meaning of life.
