Rosita is coming back to claim what is rightfully hers. Fifteen years ago, as a young child she had witnessed her father's murder at the hands of Don Camillo Ferrero and only narrowly escaped being killed herself. A loyal family servant managed to take her to another village far away. There she had grown up with the name Francesca, posing as the daughter of a couple whose own daughter of the same age had recently died. Rosita learnt later that Don Camillo had since married her mother and they had taken up residence together in the family hacienda. Rosita, now a beautiful young woman, wants her property back, but perhaps even more so, she wants revenge on Don Camillo and her mother. She didn't expect that she would find all consuming love with a childhood friend. Together with the help of old friends they plot how Don Camillo and his bandits can be defeated. But, strange as it seems to Rosita, does she also want what she had always missed, the love of her natural mother? How can she reconcile her conflicting emotions?
