Résumé

A young Spaniard, Diego de Godoy, sets sail for the New World in 1518 in search of fame and fortune. Fighting alongside Cortés and his conquistadors, Diego falls in love with Ignacia, a native woman who initiates him into the sensuous secret of chocolate. Although the lovers are soon separated, Ignacia has given Diego an elixir that will keep him alive for five hundred years. He and his faithful greyhound Pedro are destined to wander throughout the world and down the centuries seeking lost love, the perfection of chocolate and the meaning of life.
