Book description
Devastated by Richard's spiteful disclosure, her mind in utter turmoil,
Alice flees Southport. Unable to come to terms with the man's advances,
and her apparent willing reciprocation, she packs a bag and turns her
back on a liberal existence with the Howells. Lost Soul follows her
tortured path as the demons that have haunted her assault the
disillusioned and susceptible teenager. No longer able to distinguish
the difference between a desire for penance and lust, muddled by
alternating wet dreams and nightmares, the innocent beauty drifts toward
promiscuity. The search for her real mother leads Alice to the
Hope-Ashby Preparatory College in Flint. There she is offered work and a
roof over her head, but soon learns that the principal's idea of
discipline is as durable as the oldest profession. Dogged by an illusory
Richard, and hounded by an implacable conscience, Alice falls to the
wiles of Mr Hughes, the corrupt and formidable warden of The Hope.
Bludgeoned by life she yields to impropriety, to wallow in sexual and
sadistic manipulation. Lost Soul is an earthy, rational and provoking
excursion into the bizarre realms of basic lust. It is the third in an
ongoing saga of Alice Rose Hussey, the innocent girl who brings the
worst out in men. Devastated by Richard's spiteful disclosure, her
