Maria Francisca, a wealthy young heiress and her friend Mariana De Castro, a young protestant widow, are accused of witchcraft and taken before the Spanish Inquisition of Lima, Peru.

Francisca de la Cruz, a wealthy orphan, and Mariana de Castro, her widowed Protestant friend, live in a town where they are the center of hostile gossip. Father Francisco Verdugo, the Inquisitor, has his own ambitions. He has his greedy eyes on the orphan heiress' properties, but he needs a pretext to steal them.
