This beloved Hungarian work follows young Bornemissza Gergely and Cecey Éva from childhood through the legendary 1552 siege of Eger fortress. After Turkish raiders abduct them as children, their paths diverge through captivity, daring escapes, and romantic reunion. As the Ottoman Empire threatens to engulf Hungary, their personal story culminates in the desperate defense of Eger, where a small garrison faces overwhelming Turkish forces in a battle that would define the fate of Christian Europe.
