We meet the heroine of The Sensual Slave Girl, Myra, at a point in her life when she has two serious strikes against her. The first is that her mother was a prostitute; the second is that her mother is now dead and she is alone in the world. Some readers may feel that the third strike has already been called as the story opens: Myra is largely ignorant of the world as it is and totally unprepared to live alone in it. However, being what she is, Myra is far from out. Her outward beauty cloaks but cannot completely conceal an inner toughness and determination—toughness to survive and determination to make her own life, if not better than her mother's, at least different. Myra is like her mother in one important way. Her mother always had an “escape hatch” that would eventually free her from her life of degradation. Or, at least, she always said she did— Myra can never know for sure. And Myra has her own “escape hatch”—the money she always saves to enable her to find a new path to travel someday.
What happens to Myra and to her “escape hatch” is the story. Read it, and you may never think of prostitutes with contempt again. We are certain you will admire Myra, and the probability is that you will find your views on life in general a little bit changed.
