Take torment beyond words, the true meaning of bondage and pain, two beautiful young women, and sexual desires so powerful that conventional activities can never satisfy them, and you have all the ingredients for another John Savage novel. Cindy Simone has a love of tight ropes and punishments extreme enough to make her weep bitter tears. With an unexpected huge inheritance, she is ready to explore the world in search of the ultimate in helplessness and pain, finding out what it’s like to be a professional submissive, giving her body over to strangers to tie and whip and spank and abuse as they please. With her equally beautiful friend nicknamed “Kinky”, she’s off to the legendary Toucher du Fouet in France, a private club devoted to connoisseurs in the erotic arts of B&D and S&M. Finally, she tracks down the ultimate, the mythical and mystical Convent of Esclavage, and Cindy does indeed learn a great deal about the meaning of pain – and more - within its ancient walls.
