Zarcora is an amazingly beautiful young lady, in a place where a woman's only duty is to obey and pleasure her man. Betrayed and shamed, she is sent to another land to be auctioned. Here it is the women who dominate, and the men into whose hands she falls take their bitter revenge upon her. But even in the midst of the worst beatings and humiliation Zacora is bound by her upbringing to please. The man she pleases most is the Pretender to the throne -- can her sweet nature affect the behavior of a Kingdom?
