Book Description:
Lucia, the daughter of the
richest family in Pompeii, disappears one night. The mystery goes unsolved and
life moves on. The lives of Pompeii's citizens intertwine: Ibis, a prostitute
running the whorehouse owned by the Aedile, a city official, gets murdered by
his wife Lucy. Lucy falls in love with Narcissus, the most treasured gladiator
in Pompeii. The Aedile's daughter, Julia, marries Rust, the man suspected to
have murdered Lucia. Maro, Lucia's slave, holds the families together and
eventually discovers Lucia when she reappears in Pompeii twenty years later,
and as a witch.
The events in Pompeii converged
and lead to its ultimate, inevitable destruction. Only Lucia can help the city
and save lives. In a ceremony requiring possession by a god, murder, and
necromancy, Lucia discovers what is going to happen. But not everyone manages
to get away.
Dying in Pleasure brings to life
the long dead city of Pompeii, showing its citizens as vibrant, eccentric
pleasure seekers. History, pain, violence and ritual blend in a pansexual orgy
that is both exciting and extreme from beginning to end.
About
the Author:
Lady Ristretto spent the
beginning of her career writing under her real name and as a playwright. She
has a BA in English from UCLA and an MFA in playwriting from Southern Illinois
University, Carbondale. Her plays were
produced in Illinois and Texas, and her most popular work, Wonderland in Alice:
The Uncertainty Principle was produced in New York off off off Broadway.
Her first book, Dying in
Pleasure, had been a full length play that was rejected as her thesis play: the
professors on her committee felt it was too misogynistic and violent for
undergraduates to stage. Always stubborn and obsessed, Lady Ristretto spent
years rewriting the play into a novel and has recently published it as an ebook
on Amazon and Nook. Lady has recently become obsessed with cricket and deeply
wishes America would form a formidable team which is worthy to compete in the
World Cup.
