Stockholm, 1794: riddled with guilt, a young nobleman, Eric Three Roses, writes down the memories of his lost love - his beautiful wife who died on their wedding night. The young woman's mother also mourns her death and, desperate for justice, begs for help from the only person who will listen to her: Jean Mickel Cardell, the one-armed watchman. Emil, younger brother to the brilliant lawyer and detective Cecil Winge, finds the watchman to demand his late brother's pocket watch back. Instead, Cardell enlists Emil's help to discover what really happened at the Three Roses estate that dreaded wedding night.
