None of them could resist. Over three decades, seven friends saw their brotherhood monthly meetings turn from rituals of power to melancholy reunions of failures. The end would be a dignified destiny. Until a mysterious chef appears with majestic banquets. The friendship bonds are back, gluttony as celebration of life. However, after each dinner, a member of the group turns up dead. What is the real reason for the deaths? And, above all, why do these men keep returning to the dinners?
