This edition is illustrated with black-and-white drawings. The time is 18th century France; a time of religious intolerance and cruelty. Two beautiful young women, condemned as heretics, are turned over to the tender mercies of the Marquis de Lassignac and his legendarily cruel wife Elodie. In their imprisonment at the chateau, the girls are faced with the choice between worldly pleasures beyond their wildest imaginings, and continued allegiance to their faith. A tale of dungeons and dominance in a time when the weak were mercilessly preyed on by the powerful.
