Captured by Tripoli’s Barbary pirates, Stephen Fletcher was first enslaved, then assigned to guard the Pasha’s harem. Surrounded by sultry, sloe-eyed beauties whom he dared not touch under pain of torture, Fletcher lived only to escape — until he met lovely Eve Doremus.
An American like himself, Eve had been bought by Marlani, the Pasha’s favorite, to bedevil Fletcher for rejecting her advances.
Together, Fletcher and Eve fought their way through every temptation and indignity in their frantic bid for survival.
