Features: The story of this book takes place in Manchester, northern England. The protagonist, Henry Brandon, is the head chef of Strangeways Fortress Prison, which holds 1,600 inmates. This man is eccentric, erratic in behavior, emotionally cold, and arrogant. Beneath his gentle and refined exterior lies an unimaginable worship for power and indulgence in desires. Under the domination of this pathological philosophy, he uses his position to torment the stomachs of 1,600 inmates without hesitation, thereby demonstrating his "omnipotence." Moreover, his extreme lecherous nature makes any beautiful woman who gets close to him inevitably fall prey to his desires.
