Middle Ages. The Inquisition is at its peak and the inquisitors have the power of life and death over the people. One such inquisitor is Arkas' Inquisitor. Harsh and unyielding, a relentless persecutor of heresy, blasphemy, and witchcraft. His trusted assistant is Berdougos, serving as a servant, secretary, and executioner. And then disaster strikes: the Inquisitor falls in love with the young witch he is interrogating. The merciless persecutor of sin falls under the spell of a damned sinner, and instead of sending her to the pyre of punishment, he himself falls into the pyre of passionate love.

The rest is laughter. Arkas' dark humor manages to illuminate with hilarity a dark era of humanity, and the gloom of the Inquisition provides material for clever, hilarious dialogues.
