Europe does not stand the changes brought about by the French Revolution and so did Italy: many piemontesi nobles, including the new king of the region-State Carlo Emanuele IV, live under some sort of control of the French and to pay the consequences are farmers and the people, harassed by soldiers greedy and unscrupulous. In this climate makes a return to Rivombrosa, after completing his studies in Paris, the Countess Agnese Ristori (Sarah Felberbaum), daughter of the Countess of Rivombrosa Elisa Scalzi (Vittoria Puccini) and Count Fabrizio Ristori (Alessandro Preziosi), is now in marriageable age. On the way back, Agnese is stopped by the men of a robber in the area, known as the sparrowhawk that, however, let go without cause her harm. Came home a little 'shock, Agnese embraces his brother Martino Ristori (Paolo Seganti), heir to Rivombrosa after his father's death, which occurred on the morning of Christmas of 1773 at the hands of a trap concocted by the late Duke Ottavio Ranieri (Luca Ward) , and that of Elisa, died in 1784 (for unspecified reasons). Agnes soon realizes the great changes that have occurred in her house and discovers that the sparrowhawk, although it is feared by the French as a robber, is actually considered a hero by most of the inhabitants of the village, tired of the harassment of French and the inertia of the nobles who should provide them with protection.

Agnese does not intend to yield to pressure the sister, and soon know a young man at a party where you will immediately fall in love: the Marquis Andrea Casalegno (Giulio Berruti). The handsome Marquis reciprocates the sentiment, but hides many secrets, including that to assume the role of Hawk and to be the son of Lucrezia Van Necker (Jane Alexander), once a bitter enemy of Elisa. Marquise Lucrezia is now old and seriously ill, but has returned from exile in Venezia until Rivombrosa, as Napoleone Bonaparte, invading Piemonte from France, abolished the penalties on old crimes; Andrea is related to the mother, but it's good, because it has inherited the character from the true late father, the Baron of Conegliano Nicola di Napoli (Sergio Assisi).

Once you realize that it was self-defense, Andrea takes hated his late mother, thanked Martin freeing it from Loya and stop the forced marriage of the girl with the captain, who had got his hand only on the promise to free his brother.

Betrayed by Victoria, who has since begun an adulterous affair with Loya, Andrea is forced to flee to avoid capture and conviction for robbery; in his flight involves Agnese, that after the capture of the beloved does not hesitate to surrender himself to the greedy hands of the captain, that strong of his appointment as prefect of the city of Paris wants to marry the Countess to take her with him to France.
