After his mother dies, Mateusz Krol, a Kashubian boy, is taken in by a Prussian aristocrat Gerda von Krauss, and he grows up in her palace. The daughter of the von Krausses, Marita, is the same age as Mateusz, and love blossoms between them. The boys godfather is Bazyli Miotke, a Kashubian patriot who fights in Versailles for Kashubia to have its place on the map of Poland. Miotke goes on to build the symbol of Kashubian economic success, the city of Gdynia. The Treaty of Versailles grants Poland its independence, but it also makes the von Krauss family lose their property and influence. All the protagonists can feel that the world as they know it is about to change drastically. Hostility and hatred increase among the Kashubs, Poles, and Germans. When WWII breaks out, the Nazis murder civilians In the Pianica Forest, which becomes the first genocide of the war.
Mateusz Krol, kaszubski chlopiec, po smierci matki zostaje przygarniety przez pruska arystokratke Gerd von Krauss. Dorasta w palacu. Rowiesniczka Mateusza jest corka von Kraussow Marita. Miedzy mlodymi rodzi sie uczucie. Ojcem chrzestnym chlopca jest kaszubski patriota Bazyli Miotke, ktory podczas konferencji pokojowej w Wersalu walczy o miejsce Kaszub na mapie Polski, a potem buduje symbol jej gospodarczego sukcesu: Gdynie. Traktat wersalski, ktory daje Polsce niepodleglosc, sprawia, ze von Kraussowie traca majstek i wplywy. Wszyscy bohaterowie czuja, ze swiat, ktory znali, wkrotce diametralnie sie zmieni. Wsrod zyjacych obok siebie Kaszubow, Polakow i Niemcow narasta niechec i nienawisc. Wybucha II wojna swiatowa. W Lasach Piasnickich nazisci dokonuja mordu na ludnosci cywilnej pierwszego ludobojstwa tej wojny.
