In Service: Embroiled in sexual excess

To Hetty’s utmost dismay and horror he lifted her skirt so that her petticoat and drawers were exposed. She could feel the hard, masculine thighs beneath her stomach and smell the odour of pomade and cigar smoke that the man exuded. At the same time she was aware of the warm weight of his hand across her backside. They were foreign sensations, both frightening and exciting, and she felt something equally alien stirring within herself...

Entering service at Longton Hall young Hetty falls victim to Sir Victor, the sexually depraved master of the house. But his wife, Lady Alice, suspects her husband of debauchery and persuades Hetty to disguise herself as a man to spy on him. And so creating a fictional brother Hetty pretends to be ’George’, and finds she has no choice but to participate in Sir Victor’s lusty revels.

But Hetty has an ally in Leo, Sir Victor’s son, and together they are increasingly embroiled in the shameless activities of the lecherous lord, enduring all sorts of sexual humiliation and excess. They plan to escape, but Leo still hasn’t realised his beloved Hetty is also his best friend, George...
