The Killer Wore Leather

The_Killer_Wore_Leather_001In the Grand Sterling Hotel in Midtown Manhattan, last year’s Mister Global Leather winner, Mack Steel, lies dead on the floor of his suite. He is wearing only very frilly, bright yellow knickers. Enter Detective Rebecca Feldblum of Midtown East Precinct…

This is a hilarious new murder mystery novel by the great Laura Antoniou. Here’s what our reviewer, the lovely Donna Motta, has to say: “As long term fans of Laura Antoniou’s books (The Marketplace series, The Catalyst & Other Works amongst just a few)  we were excited to read her latest offering, ‘The Killer Wore Leather’.

Set in New York at the Mr. & Ms. Global Leather contest, it’s both murder mystery and a look inside the world of leather contests, a not entirely serious one! Laura weaves a Raymond Chandler style ‘whodunnit’, the story of two unlikely detectives partnered up and a look at the behind the scenes chaos & ‘fun’ of a major leather contest.

Those who’ve been lucky enough to attend one of Laura’s infamous rants (umm, keynote speeches) or classes will swear they can hear her cackling in the background as they read her loving and gentle fun taking descriptions of the various leather types who make up the ‘community’. From Old Guard to NuKnk to Leather Masters to Dommes to Fetishists to slaves to the obligatory random furry and of course the Zodians (who follow the teachings of the book of Zod), anyone who’s been out and about in the scene or who spends time on Fetlife.com will smile in recognition and occasionally wince.

However, knowledge of the leather scene is not a prerequisite for enjoying this book. Seen through the eyes of the detectives called in to investigate a murder and those of a vanilla journalist who’s cursing having to cover the contest, the ridiculousness of some alter egos and curiosity of the world of kinky sex are both explored, explained and yes, also poked fun at.

The whodunnit cracks along at a rapid pace with twists and turns, clues and hints. Like all good mysteries, it keeps you guessing right to the end when you exclaim ‘but of course!’ Giving away any more of the story would be a spoiler but, take my word for it, buy the book and settle in for a very enjoyable time.”

The Killer Wore Leather is £11.95 from most good bookstores, including http://www.KFSMedia.com

1905: The House in South London

1905 is a lovely, roomy Edwardian house with lots of space, a beautiful entrance hall, impressive staircase… and a dungeon.

The location is a pleasant suburb of South London. There’s parking for several cars in the private driveway.

As well as the dungeon room, there are also party rooms, bedrooms (with lots of beds!), bathroom, loo and kitchen.

1905 is ideal for parties, filming, domination sessions and all kinds of kinky get-togethers. There’s plenty of space for a few dozen people, a film crew or an intimate couple.

You can rent 1905 by the day or by the evening at reasonable rates. Email to Laura at suttonencounters@hotmail.co.uk

These photos were taken at 1905, on film shoots for FemdomFilms.eu

Save Preaching To The Perverted!

Preaching To The Perverted was the first mainstream film set squarely on the fetish club scene. There are many familiar faces from the London fetish scene throughout the film, and just read the credits from even more familiar names!. The film became a cult success after being dropped by the BBC as too racy (!). Just launched is a Kickstart campaign to raise funds so that it can be digitally restored and revived for the Fifty Shades generation. Know someone interested in fetish and BDSM? This is an entertaining and lighthearted way to show them a little of what goes on in the scene… [Read more...]

Skin Two at Springtime Party: Saturday 13th April

skintwo-altvanillaWe’re back at the Vanilla Alternative for a Skin Two Springtime fetish party! Tickets are on sale now on www.JoannaLark.com

Those of you who went to our last event at the VA will remember it’s a great venue with friendly staff, loads of parking, and huge private outdoor grounds – ideal for warm nights

The venue is on the A1 near Sandy, very easy to reach from London and the Midlands. There are rooms available if you want to stay overnight and several other hotels nearby

Performance

There will be a bondage performance by Master Cosmic, organiser of London Alternative Market and one of the UK’s top bondage masters. See www.MasterCosmic.co.uk

Dungeon

We will have a dungeon, of course, hosted by Mistress Rebekka Raynor, leading London dominatrix and star of FemDom Films. If you are new to BDSM, Rebekka will show you how to use the equipment and play safely. Meet Rebekka here: www.RebekkaRaynor.com

Photo Studio

There will be a professional photo studio by Helena Eloise, who is very experienced at this sort of thing – she has a real gift for stylish and good humoured fetish images, see www.HelenaEloisePhotography.com

Dancing

DJ Jamie is in charge on the dance floor and the star of the show is…

Lady Lydia Sings

The beautiful Spanish classically trained musician performs live for us. Her repertoire includes Master & Servant (Depeche Mode), Venus in Furs (Velvet Underground), Walk on the Wild Side (Lou Reed), Masochism Tango (Tom Lehrer) and many more, including some French and Spanish classics that will be new to you. Discover lady Lydia at www.LadyLydiaSings.com

Dress Code

Fetish dress code preferred – rubber, leather, uniforms, trannies etc, all welcome. Elegant dresses and smart business suits are OK, but NO jeans or casual clothes – do make an effort! (Feel free to change into your fetish outfit at the venue.)

Bar prices are reasonable; bottled beers £3 – £4 and regular spirits £2.50, some premium spirits £3+

As it’s often used for swinger parties, the management are fine with a fetish/BDSM crowd and couldn’t be more welcoming. The venue has a couples-only room and a big hot tub – quite a few fetish people jumped in last time, though they (mostly) kept their latex on

Here are some of the photos from our last event at The Vanilla Alternative, to give you an idea…
