Three 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, managed to find a way to bring the male of their choice to heel - be it through blackmail and coercion, hypnotic mind-control and the occult, or simply sheer erotic power. Inside you will find: "The Housekeeper", by Maurice Reynard; "Luella Miller Revisited" from Sandrine Bessancort and Sandrine D'Honfleur's "The Shaming of Purbeck". Exotic and erotic fiction with criminal, occult, and sadistic overtones.
