San Michele is a frontier prison where Bruno Testori, the Director, exercises his personal idea of justice, his fourth degree of judgement, above the law of the courts and the codes of penal procedure. Because behind every inmate there is a story, a derailed life: and even if outside prison the first to go off the rails is his own, inside San Michele Bruno is an absolute ruler. Ruthless with those who deserve it, and unexpectedly merciful with others, always following the principles of his own distorted and obscure morality. But when the kingdom threatens to collapse, threatened by imminent danger, Bruno will find himself fighting the most difficult war.
