Dr. Hesselius discovers an old box with papers and a painting of a young woman. He's so drawn to the loveliness of the woman that he takes the painting home and puts it up in his bedroom. He then spends weeks in his room looking at the picture and pleasuring himself. Finally realizing he has been letting his practice and other duties go by the wayside, he pulls himself together and starts to read the parchments in the box.

What Dr. Hesselius reads is a story written down by Laura, the daughter of a dead general living in a castle in Styria with her English guardian, Martin Miller, and governess, Madam Perrodon. While reading these papers, Dr. Hesselius fantasizes about being with Laura and what she would feel like inside and out.

Laura relates how isolated she is from the rest of humanity in the castle. She also tells how Madam Perrodon is a very stern, but loving governess, although Madam Perrodon does believe in very strict physical discipline. Madam Perrodon's preferred method of punishment is the bare derriere with the bristle side of a brush. She also seems to like the sight of Laura's naked body.

Laura seems to have a crush on Martin, her guardian; but he seems to not be interested in her sexually in the slightest. Martin hires a finishing governess, Madam De LaFontaine, to help reacquaint Laura with French and other things it is necessary for a young lady of her position to know. Madam De LaFontaine also seems to be very fond of discipline, but her preferred methods are with riding crops and whips.

Laura's two friends and their fathers come for a visit from time to time. Laura and her friends seem to be very physically intimate and very fond of each other. Madam Perron and Madam De Lafontaine also become very physically intimate and fond of each other as well. Martin and the fathers of Laura's friends also tend to be very fond of each other and physically intimate.

One evening a carriage driving by the castle has an accident. A young lady named Carmilla is hurt and taken in for a few months while her mother continues on her very important journey. Carmilla and Laura become physically and emotionally involved with each other. Carmilla becomes physically involved with Martin as well to the point that he is totally obsessed with Carmilla and is jealous of the involvement between Carmilla and Laura. From the time Carmilla arrives, deaths begin to occur in the village; suspicion eventually falls on Carmilla.

There are a lot of very extreme erotic situations. The story is definitely not for everyone. There are a lot of same sex situations, whippings to the point of bleeding, and pleasuring devices used in this book. The story is definitely on the edge and not something anyone easily offended should read; but for those very reasons, I liked it; and if you don't mind same sex erotic encounters, spankings, submission, and sexual devices used somewhat extremely, this is definitely the book for you.
