In 814 A.D. Johanna is condemned to life as a woman. Because she senses that her destiny is a different one, that God is showing her a different path. She joins the Benedictine Monastery at Fulda disguised as a msn, calling herself Brother Johannes, and lives there as a successful and well-respected doctor.
Johanna continues to move up the hierarchy and the danger of her being found out becomes greater and greater. She meets Gerold there in Rome and realizes that there is one thing she can no longer deny: her love. When Pope Sergius dies, Johanna is named as his successor. However, her feelings for Gerold are stronger than her fear of being found out - but Johanna's enernies are just waiting for a chance to remove her from the throne??
