How cruel do you have to be to use a human being as a lamp or centerpiece? Douglas is about to overthrow the cruel tyrant with the help of his boyfriend and the rebel army he raised. But just as the goal seems to be at hand, a brutal betrayal destroys his hopes and leaves the rebellion in shambles. Douglas is captured and given to the tyrant’s sadistic daughter to be used and humiliated as a warning to any others who might consider rebellion. Trapped without any allies in this castle filled with decorations created out of living human beings contorted in nightmarish positions, where torture is nothing but a dinnertime amusement, Douglas is subjected to torture and degradation that pushes his limits. But is the Princess just further tormenting his mind, or does she really have her own agenda? And what would it really mean for him if she does? Can he even endure long enough to find out? This is a queer splatterpunk story. It contains graphic violence and gore, as well as transgender and bisexual characters, both good and bad.
