Mitsuko was born with a star-shaped birthmark in her palm, signifying that she will climb to greatness - but as a middle-class Japanese girl in the late 1800s, the best thing she can hope for is a respectable marriage. When she meets Heinrich, a handsome, charming Austrian diplomat, her feelings may force her to go against all the rules she has been taught.<br><br>
