Frenzy of Desire

A forbidden love, a desperate choice, a frenzy of desire... Laurent is torn by her physical desire for Dan, her friend and doctor, and for Elsie, a woman who offers an exciting, forbidden love that makes her tremble just imagining it. To make a decision, she must discover what her true nature is...which she can only know by experiencing, and satisfying, both of her lusts in a frenzy of desire. And then she meets Johnny...who changes everything.

John B. Thompson (1911-1994) was an under-appreciated author of sharply observant, brilliantly-written stories, primarily set in the deep south in the 1950s & '60s. Unfortunately, his books were packaged and marketed as "sleaze" for their uncompromising explicitness. So his bold work fell into obscurity. Now they are back in print for the first time in over 60 years.

Praise for John B. Thompson

"With colorful characters and multi-faceted, interlocking storylines, John B. Thompson creates a whirlwind novel ripe with violence and racial unrest. Fans of Charles Williams, Harry Whittington, and Erskine Caldwell should find plenty to like." Paperback Warrior
