3-Antique and retro descents into female supremacy open with Kurt Steiner's “A Journey to Disgrace”, as a traveller to the East finds himself overmastered by the hypnotic partnership of a beautiful and sadistic Indian mother and her less than beauteous but equally commanding stepdaughter. This is followed by a “A Scandal in Bohemia Revisited" from Sandrine Bessancort in which the renowned sexual reserve of Mr Sherlock Holmes succumbs to the iron-will and the aphrodisial allure of a dominant and demanding female; Our final misadventure is Rafe Linnell's “Madame Solange”, and his classic tale of an ageless Parisienne horror irresistible to the men upon whose humiliation she thrives... Horror that is about to descend upon an affluent and sleepy 1930's English village. Classic female-led fiction for the connoisseur of the dominant woman.
