Description: On the eve of a brutal murder in contemporary Manhattan, Alexander Devoncroix finally reveals to his son and heir a tightly guarded chapter in the family history, which is known to no outsiders. In a world in which a superior race of werewolves hold the positions of power, human and werewolf segregation had become the norm. But for the first time, the leaders of the pack have accepted a human. In Devoncroix's tale of dazzling 19th century Paris, we meet three pivotal players: the young human Tessa LaGuerre, who falls under the spell of a yew powerful, very sensual werewolf; Alexander Devoncroix, the charismatic werewolf who adores humans too well, but whose ultimate loyalty is to the pack; and Elise, the imperial pack leader who lays claim to Alexander. Beloved "pet" of select members of the pack, Tessa naively embraces all things werewolf -- an ambition that results in unspeakable tragedy. An intense saga of love and betrayal, "The Passion" is a story of those who walk the fine line between man and beast.
