Helene Stranges store værk om Sværkeslægten tager sin begyndelse i 1720. Vi følger tre generationer af stærke sværkesønner: Den traditionsbundne og viljestærke Søren Sværke, hvis kærlighed til hustruen Else forbliver ugengældt. Sønnen Klaus, der kæmper med den foregående generations ufortalte hemmeligheder og truslen mod Sværkeslægtens stærke fællesskab. Og Morten Sværke, der i tredje generation leder udflytningen af gården fra landsbyen og sikrer familiens fællesskab. Men som også betaler prisen - et kompromis med kærligheden.

Da Kirsten Sværke er blevet enke, tager hun - for at sikre børnene en rimelig fremtid - som den første kvinde hånd om den gamle slægtsgård. Hendes bekymring for sønnen Rasmus vokser, da han på grund af sit svage helbred må bryde med den århundrede gamle familietradition og træde udaf bøndernes række for at komme i væverlære. Kirsten Sværke er en stærk kvindeskikkelse, og først da gården brænder, overlader hun ansvaret for familien til den politisk aktive søn, Henrik, og dennes kone, Sofie.
