Book description
The villa at Severcy is a place of extremes. Here, innocence and love
vie with experience and cruelty as young Isabelle is led into
perversion by Robert, the handsome Englishman who visited the villa
one summer. As Isabelle is introduced to the dark pleasures of
Severcy, so her sister aids in the sensual education of Charlotte,
Robert's bride in England.
As Robert enjoys the girls of the villa, his new wife is visited by
five of his friends. Each is provided with a key that will open the
door to her bedroom and which commands her full obedience. Meanwhile,
Isabelle must endure the cruelty of the Maitre of Severcy, Alain, and
Absolem whip master of the stables. Only passions as strong as those
shared by Charlotte and Isabelle can survive these dark tests. As they
are enslaved, so they enslave all who use them.
