Arriving in India in the early days of the Raj, Amy Spencer realises the stuffy world of the British Army wives is not for her. Taking tea and playing croquet hold a little appeal for a young woman entranced with sensual delights on offer elsewhere.

She is shown places where the other women dare not venture - where Tantric mysteries and the Kama Sutra come alive. And it's only a matter of time before she's besotted by the charms of Ravinder, the Maharaja's exquisitely handsome son, who will show her the pathway to absolute pleasure.

In this extraordinary novel Jennifer describes in detail and with painful clarity her Initiation at the hands of the Professor and his beautiful wife. She learns, one by one, the Devices of discipline; the Areas of her body on which punishment is inflicted; and the Positions that she must adopt to receive chastisement.She soon becomes a willing pupil, and eager to learn; nonetheless her frequent errors earn her extra strokes, and she starts to wonder whether her Initiation will ever end.
