title: The Case of The Kidnapped Countess
author: Savage, John
description: A beautiful Countess is kidnapped, and Private Detective (or, as he prefers to put it, "Private Dick") Sled Speed is on the case. Only, this time, he has, reluctantly, a partner. His not-so-little sister, Susie, is determined to become a private investigator, and has decided that big brother would make the perfect teacher - although she seems rather keen to learn other lessons, those involving ropes, handcuffs, chains and extreme bondage from various other men (and women) along the way, much to the consternation of her protective elder brother. Things get really tacky when the bad guys snatch Susie and begin making demands on Sled. With a couple of not-too-bright henchmen who want to torture Susie, a mysterious "Boss" behind the evil, and a convention of BDSM people, you have a typical Sled Speed novel: lots of bondage, torments and action-packed danger.
