Nightmare in Scarlet

Christine Swann did not expect to slip into a living nightmare world where she is naked and at the mercy of Harvey Wade: the man she hates most in the world, but that was her fate. To find out where she has hidden a substantial sum of money, Wade has used advanced technology to enter her dreams where he uses extreme bondage, whips, gibbets, hooks, rods, wax and water on her helpless body to try to make her talk.

But Wade has not counted on accidentally stirring a strange imaginary creature from Christine's earliest years who she had named the "Hairyman", and who now intrudes on his sadistic schedule of torments and begins to threaten his plans. What are the Hairyman's intentions towards Christine and how does it keep growing and changing? And where has its huge intimidating penis come from?

Of course, Christine knows that both it and Wade are simply part of a terrible convoluted sexual nightmare. She'll be quite safe if she can only wake up back on her red-framed Korrector bed again. The trouble is that try as she might, she can't!

(This is one of the "Nightmare In?" tales of bondage, submission and perverse sex set in weird but strangely significant dreamworlds, involving women who have only one thing in common: the type of bed they use.)
