Crossroads of Ecstasy 

Disciples of Debauch! There were four: a lovely, depraved young wanton; a virile, ruggedly handsome male courtesan; a servile, simpering effeminate; and a voluptuous queen with an insatiable erotic appetite. Together, they comprised a small kingdom, a sensual never-never land ruled by perversion and devoted to debauch. But how had this strange, exotic microcosm come into existence? Only when each of its devotees has related the story of their own fall to depravity can the reader grasp the stark, animal level of the strange cult which resides at The Crossroads of Ecstasy.
