About the Book

**Warning! This book contains adult orientated themes which are essential for portraying the events, and the levels of exploitation practiced by individual characters, which may not suitable for minors**Stephanie was very much the average girl next door, like your sister, your daughter, or your friend - that was before she had the misfortune to become involved with Carl Butler, who viciously exploited her by blackmail and coercion, dragging her into the human sewer that was his world. Stephanie was forced into a world of drugs, prostitution, and seedy skin-flicks, and even found herself involved in a murder investigation - witnessing things that would haunt her life forever, and very nearly killed her - only the intervention of a kindly clergyman (Father Patrick O'Madden) would save her from a certain death at the hands of Butler. By the time Butler died, he was homeless and destitute, and showed no sign of the status he had once held as the millionaire porn baron who had ran the city's dark, clandestine, prostitution, porn and drugs trade. In the weeks leading to his death, Investigative journalist Simon Baker had taken an interest in Butler's story. He was given a deep insight into the world that once existed on the dimly lit back streets and underground cellars, that sit derelict beneath the pavements that line the west end of the city. Before embarking on this dark and disturbing journey, Baker had no concept of the depths of depravity which human beings could go to. After meeting Butler who was gratuitously named, 'The Baron', he wished he still held that innocence. He would uncover a sordid underground world, which he would come to realise had no moral boundaries. What the Baron's customers wanted, he obtained for them. Sadly, people apparently disappearing from the face of the earth was only too common an occurrence. Butler saw human beings as nothing more than business commodities, whose sole purpose was to satisfy his parasitic needs, and to keep dirty money flowing into his business interests, with no regard to how badly his exploitation affected those who had the misfortune to have inadvertently stepped into his path. **The Baron takes you on a dark journey which will leave you questioning your perceptions of humanity. A disturbing, haunting and highly recommended read.** - Christopher Kerrelli, NTWS
