Henri had a passion for Napoleon and Napoleon had a passion for chicken. From Boulogne toMoscow 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 webbedfeet 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, andtogether they flee to the canals of darkness.
