Luis, un profesor de historia que trabaja en la Universidad de Antioquia, conoce y se enamora de la también historiadora Piedad Fino. Cuando Piedad, que recibe amenazas e intimidación debido a su labor como investigadora, desaparece en misteriosas circunstancias, Luis decide abandonar todas sus responsabilidades y emprender un viaje en su búsqueda, que comenzará en el municipio de Santa Fe de Antioquia.Una vez allí, una serie de pistas le llevará hasta un manuscrito que cuenta la historia de otro Luis, que vivió en la ciudad en el siglo XVII. Mientras realiza la transcripción del texto, el profesor se verá engullido por un caleidoscopio narrativo donde se funden pasado con presente y descendientes con ancestros para desvelar parte de la historia no escrita de esta región, que la desaparecida Piedad puso tanto empeño en desentrañar.
