Page 243 of about 300 in this novel brings the first sighting of consensual pleasureable biblical relations. Sorry. That's too little, too late for me.Before that. All the described couplings are expressions of humiliation or power. And they're not even between the hero and heroine.The over-riding theme of this story is torture, torture, torture. Of men, women; young and old. Plus two other scenes of degradation which I would not be allowed to detail on this family oriented website. Obviously if I'd known about this I wouldn't have bought the book. Maybe I missed the clues given by other reviewers.I skim read my way through the final third. I still felt contaminated.
