| STORY DESCRIPTION Annie, a new graduate, is a pretty, buxom and apparently self-possessed young woman, with an interest in bondage and submission. She has, however, never had the confidence to share her feelings during her short-lived relationships with men. Waiting for a research grant to become available, she takes a job at a garden centre, living in a static caravan belonging to the owner, Sarah. For want of any other social life, she accompanies her to the meetings of a local feminist seminar, run by the enigmatic Stephanie, to whom she unburdens herself, confessing also that she is probably bisexual. Invited to stay with her, all Annie's dreams come true. Sarah and Stephanie are actually partners, and together they begin to train her as a pleasure slave, keeping her naked and in bondage. Gradually they introduce her to other slaves, owners and masters; the secretive world of the all-powerful 'Organisation'.
During her first few days in slavery, Annie becomes aware that she is stimulated by pain; both her own and others'. At first, the spankings and whippings administered by her new owners are mild and playful, but soon she and the housekeeper- a much more experienced slave- are left under the control of Whipmistress Sadie, whose skill with the lash is notorious. It quickly becomes clear Annie, and soon to her owners, that she is a genuine sadomasochist, and that regular floggings might well become part of her everyday life.
Meanwhile she is used by a number of men, one of whom becomes obsessed with her, forcing the Organisation to take exceptional steps to ensure her safety. The season for racing human ponies is just beginning, and at the first meeting, Annie is used as a prize to reward the highest achievers. The story then reaches its violent climax, as she has to risk everything to protect and preserve the lifestyle that she's come to love.
These events take place in the world of 'the Organisation'; the body that regulates the institution of slavery in the UK and the Irish Republic, and provides support and security for the owners and keepers of slaves. It is, however, independent of the other novels in the 'Organisation' series, having just one major character in common with them.
