Later research has revealed that the author was a London lawyer of the time named Stanislas de Rhodes. The story is narrated by a flea who tells the tale of a beautiful young girl named Bella, whose burgeoning sexuality is taken advantage of by her young lover Charlie, the local priest Father Ambrose and two of his colleagues in holy orders. Bella is then employed to procure her best friend, Julia, for the sexual enjoyment of both the priests and of Julia's own father. The book was adapted into a 1976 pornographic film (see § Film adaptation).
