The book is set in the 16th century and revolves around the lives of its characters, particularly focusing on the titular Ljungars family and the events surrounding them. The narrative mixes elements of folklore, family dynamics, and social commentary, hinting at a rich tapestry of historical and imagined events that reflect the era.  At the start of the story, the reader is introduced to Myllyranta, a prosperous village in early 16th-century Finland, protected by the nearby Naantali monastery. The plot thickens with the arrival of Master Gervasius, who collects taxes on behalf of the monastery and interacts with the local inhabitants, particularly a lively boy named Taavi. The opening chapters showcase the interactions between these characters and set the stage for a narrative filled with adventure, tension with neighboring lords, and hints of magical realism. The introduction of prominent figures like the knight Bo Knuutinpoika Ljungars and his family establishes the main cast that will influence the unfolding tale of conflict, bravery, and destiny in a historically rich landscape.
