Among his followers are Belle, a beautiful blonde seeking his unusual form of treatment; Carey Meredith, a redheaded woman described in the period advertising as a nymphomaniac; a striptease performer drawn into his bizarre ministry; and Lily, his sensuous wife, who knows her husband’s faith healing is fraudulent yet remains caught up in the strange world surrounding him.The result is an outrageous mixture of religion, deception, sex and exploitation—the sort of deliberately scandalous subject matter that made these vintage adult paperbacks notorious.Themes include phony faith healing, religious exploitation, sexual manipulation, nymphomania, striptease, lust, temptation, bizarre thrills, adultery, hypocrisy and cult-like devotion.CONDITION: This copy is from new old stock and appears unread, presenting in exceptionally clean, near-new condition. Bright cover, tight binding, clean interior and extremely little evidence of handling or reading.Please examine all photographs carefully, as they show the actual book being offered and are part of the condition description.An especially interesting collectible for enthusiasts of vintage sleaze, sexploitation fiction, fake faith-healer and cult themes, nymphomania-themed pulp, provocative adult paperbacks and 1960s popular culture.
