Limited Edition DVD Box Set Every Memorable Episode in One Huge Collection - Lowest Price Online Guaranteed Queen of Swords is an action-adventure television series set in California during the early 19th century that ran for one season, from 2000 to 2001. The show is about a young noblewoman who is Tessa Alvarado by day and a Zorro-style masked avenger by day and night known as the Queen of Swords. The Queen of Swords robs from the oppressive Military Alcalde and returns money to the oppressed peasants while righting wrongs, protecting the innocent, punishing the guilty and trying to find the murderer of her father. The series first aired on October 7, 2000 and, after a season of poor ratings, was cancelled, but has since gained a cult following since through re-runs. In 1817, a young Spanish aristocrat, Tessa Alvarado (Tessie Santiago), returns to California after the death of her father and finds the town she was born in run by a militaristic governor who abuses his power, resulting in the miscarriage of justice and the poor living conditions of his subjects. Upset about the state of her birth place and the murder of her father, Tessa's path is revealed to her in a mysterious dream. She will take up arms to protect the people from the town's governor and to avenge her father's death. Tessa will do this in disguise behind a mask, becoming the Queen of Swords. As the Queen of Swords, Tessa becomes a vision of hope for the people who live in her long oppressed town. She is helped by her long time friend and servant, Marta (Paulina G_lvez), a gypsy with great knowledge of the tarot. The Queen of Swords name comes from one of Marta's tarot cards. Tessa's biggest enemy in the town is Colonel Luis Montoya (Valentine Pelka), the corrupt and tyrannical governor. Montoya is ruthless and has little care for human life other than his own. He believes in executions without fair trials, enslaving the poor people of the town and blackmailing his own allies. Montoya is aided by his right hand man, Captain Marcus Grisham (Anthony Lemke). Grisham, an American mercenary who escaped execution for a horrible crime, his own self interest tests his loyalty to Montoya on a number of occasions, has the mission of ridding Montoya of the troublesome Queen of Swords,a mission that he and his soldiers have a hard time accomplishing, due in part to the inaccurate single shot weapons. Grisham is helped by Vera (Elsa Pataky), the unfaithful trophy wife of Don Hidalgo (Tacho Gonz_lez), working as a spy for him.
