“The Silken Lure” by Pierre Flammeche (George Dawson). Archer Book No. 70 (1951). Cover Art by Reginald Heade. Digest size. Distributed in the USA by Kaywin Publishers, Inc.

“A NOVEL WITH A HEART SEARCHING MORAL, OUTSTANDING IN ITS FRANKNESS.”

 

From the back cover:

 

“Now I know you for a vile creature, hardly worth the name of man at all – a vile seducer – a filthy lecher . . . ! And you’ve never loved anything in your life – except your vile and evil self . . . !”

 

These were the terrible words that brought Eyre Drummond’s world tumbling down about him. The one person that meant everything to him turned against him. At long last he was paying for the sins of his youth – not in money but in all that counted in his happiness.

 

Eyre, who in his youth used his great wealth to gain his desires with innocent young girls, felt that with money he had paid his full measure for these pleasures. It wasn’t until many years later that he found he really had to pay.

 

This is a tale told with realism and understanding by Pierre Flammeche, who understands fully the passions and desires of his characters.
