Estelle Marchant brings us a story of horror, possession, and the dark occult, stretching from the world of old Europe to the present day North American continent.

A horror of instant human bondage that, for one just divorced man in New York, whose blood finds itself on the lips of another, will result in a lifetime of service to his new owner.

Should, that is, he prove pleasing enough.

A Carpathian owner who, surprisingly, is not a vampire.

SHE is something much older and far more demanding.

Domestically as well as physically!

Estelle Marchant is the pen-name of a corporate-lawyer employed by a large pharmaceutical company with an HQ in London's golden-mile and an interest in the power-dynamic between the sexes.
