'What you risk reveals what you value...' The Passion is a fairy tale about survival and broken-heartedness cruelty obsession and madness. Henri had a passion for Napoleon and Napoleon had a passion for chicken. From Boulogne to Moscow Henri butchered for his Emperor and never killed a single man. Meanwhile in Venice the city of chance and disguises Villanelle was born with the webbed feet of her boatman father - but in the casinos she gambled her heart and lost. As the soldier-chef's love for Napoleon turns to hate he finds the Venetian beauty and together they flee to the canals of darkness.
