OverviewColonel Neil Campbell, the British Commissioner assigned to remain with Napoleon Bonaparte when he is exiled to the island of Elba, struggles with his moral failure, cowardice as he calls it, in having accepted an order to assassinate the Emperor. Britain, fearful of an escape and its potential consequences for Europe, orders the assassination. Colonel Campbell is consumed with guilt over his cowardice and must find a way to repair the tear in his conscience and redeem himself. The question he asks himself: Am I duty bound to carry out a military order or, can I exercise my free will in deciding whether or not to carry out an order? His answer determines Napoleon's fate.
