La trepidante aventura de Max Costa y Mecha Inzunza les lleva a recorrer tres escenarios distintos del convulso siglo XX: pasarán en 1928 por Buenos Aires gracias a una extraña apuesta entre dos músicos, en Niza se verán envueltos una trama de espionaje durante los años de la Guerra Civil española y los primeros vientos de la segunda Guerra Mundial, para terminar en Sorrento, en los años sesenta, embarcados en una inquietante partida de ajedrez.

February 1913: seventeen-year-old Leda, carrying only a small trunk and her father's cherished violin, leaves her Italian village for a new home, and a new husband, in Argentina. Arriving in Buenos Aires, she discovers that he has been killed, but she remains: living in a tenement, without friends or family, on the brink of destitution. Still, she is seduced by the music that underscores life in the city: tango, born from lower-class immigrant voices, now the illicit, scandalous dance of brothels and cabarets.
