Pub owner Maura Donovan is still learning the local customs of the Irish village she now calls home, and with the holidays approaching she's unsure how much, or how little, to decorate. She's also puzzled by the small construction project going on across the street, which is shrouded in secrecy and has the whole of West Cork guessing what it might be. But most troubling of all is the secretive young boy who shows up at the pub's door, hinting that he and his mother had to leave Dublin--in a hurry. Sensing danger, Maura becomes more alarmed when an unknown man shows up and begins lurking around the pub. With so many questions on her mind and so few answers, Maura knows she'll have to turn to her new village friends to help her sort out all the mysterious goings-on--and maybe deliver an unexpected gift to someone in need.

From the author of the underground classic, SM 101 comes essential information on how to use ropes and restraints to achieve comfortable, erotic, attractive bondage - for decoration, for sensation or for immobility. No complex knots or hard-to-follow diagrams... just common sense, easy to use, flexible techniques, with a special emphasis on safety and responsibility. Illustrated throughout.
