A Story of Torture and Abuse!
Finding Justine - Libertine
In 1787, whilst
being held prisoner in the Bastille, Marquis Donatien Alphonse
François de Sade wrote a novella entitled Les infortunes de la
vertu. In
1791 the enhanced edition was published with the title Justine
ou Les Malheurs de la vertu,
or in English - Justine,
or The Misfortunes of Virtue.
This was his first published work, and on the instruction of Napoleon
Bonaparte, Justine ensured that he spent the remaining 13 years of
his life in prison, seemingly the book sickened the stomach as easily
back then as it does today!
Let
us jump forward just over 200 years and meet Earl
Marcus
de Silverleigh, a dot com billionaire and devotee of the Marquis and
his writings.
A
man of unspeakable depravity, and with
the
wealth to indulge even the wildest of fantasies. A man determined to
re-enact de Sades sadistic masterpiece. A man driven
to transpose
Justine from fantasy to reality.
He simply needs to find her... and money is no object.
Theresa
Vasilev is unfortunate enough to fit his vision of Justine perfectly,
she is innocent, beautiful and God fearing... who better to suffer
the ultimate torment. Stolen
from her home in Sofia, Bulgaria, she is delivered into sexual abuse
and slavery as Marcus grooms and shapes her to play the role he has
cast for her.
Only
one man can save her, and they have never met. Can
Adam (Mr Average) Hurst stand up the Earl and dream of victory? Can
Theresa survive the horrors and torture that Marcus has planed for
her? Will wealth and power prove mightier that law and justice?
Find out in Finding Justine – Libertine.
For a limited time offered at only $0.99 / £0.99.
Disclaimer: This work is based upon the writings of The Marquis de
Sade, and although it should not be considered as erotica, scenes of
sexual sadism and torture are described.. reader discretion is
advised.
Not suitable for under 18's

Gondell's Quest - New cover image and re-publishing
