Two works of believable female-led fiction for the reader fascinated by the woman of command and dominance who, even in those periods where men held all the reins of power, manage to find a way to bring the male of their choice to heel - be it through blackmail and coercion, hypnotic mind-control, or simply sheer erotic power. Inside you will find: "The Housekeeper", by Maurice Reynard; and Kurt Steiner's "A Journey to Disgrace".
