As the Jack-of-All-Wicked-Trades for a secretive French military intelligence agency, 24-year-old Lieutenant Kingsley Boissonneault has done it all—spied, lied, and killed under orders. But his latest assignment is quite out of the ordinary. His commanding officer's nephew has disappeared inside a sex cult, and Kingsley has been tasked with bringing him home to safety. The cult’s holy book is Story of O, the infamous French novel of extreme sado-masochism. Their château is a looking-glass world where women reign and men are their willing slaves. Or are they willing? It’s Kingsley’s mission to find out. Once inside the château, however, Kingsley quickly falls under the erotic spell cast by the enigmatic Madame, a woman of wisdom, power, and beauty. She offers Kingsley the one thing he’s always wanted. But the price? Giving up forever the only person he’s ever loved. The Chateau is a new standalone Original Sinners novel from international bestseller Tiffany Reisz, author of The Siren and The Lucky Ones.

Una lectura amable situada en el universo de los Original Sinners (O.S.) y que tiene a Kingsley como protagonistas con la omnipresencia casi permanente de ÉL. Aunque la trama tal y como la dejamos en el 8 de los O.S. no avanza entiendo que se considere el 9 porque es una novela de longitud normal y porque cuenta una experiencia pasada de Kingsley desde el presente, con lo que es necesario conocer en qué punto dejamos a los personajes principales.
Dicho esto os comento que me ha entretenido bastante aunque teniendo en cuenta que Kingsley no es mi personaje favorito de la serie sus libros siempre me gustan un poquito menos. Sin enbargo para los fans de los O.S. creo que es una lectura necesaria y que va a gustar ya que la Reisz, como siempre en ella, hace que este libro encaje como un puzle en todo el universo que ha inventado (que a estas alturas menudo pisto es), dándonos las claves de muchos comportamientos futuros de Kingsley. Digamos que antes de lo que pasa en este libro Kingsley era una persona y después de él, empieza a ser la persona que conocemos.
Como siempre en Tiffany Reisz es un libro estupendamente bien escrito, con destellos del humor del que Kingsley siempre hace gala (aquí es algo más serio de lo habitual), mujeres fuertes, detalles sueltos que nos llegan al corazoncito a los fans y con BDSM y sexo explícitos (y no me refiero a tres azotes en el culete y todos tan campantes, me refiero a cosas más fuertes y a ver el BDSM como modo de vida).
Y todo esto mezclado con una especie de misterio a resolver (que al final se resuelve torpemente) que anima un poco más la lectura ya que te da la sensación de no estar ante un libro de folleteo nada más sino ante una historia más completa.
En fin, que es una lectura entretenida que nos va a dejar a los fans con ganas de volver a pasar un ratito con nuestros O.S. favoritos.
The Chateau By Tiffany Reisz is a stand alone erotic thriller set in the Original Sinner world. Personally I think you’d enjoy it more if have already read the previous books and fallen in love with Kingsley. Here we get to see young Kingsley sent on a mission into a “cult” where he meets Madame the woman in charge in The Chateau, who takes her inspiration from The Story of O. The Chateau is a house where the women rule and men serve. I have never read The Story of O but I think I need to.
We get to meet some new characters such as the Madame. She is such an interesting character. A sadist and a brutal one. But not in a physical sense. She is fascinating. We also get some old characters. Søren’s presence is all through the story. Even when he’s not there. He is still there.
Tiffany has yet again created an amazing story with out of this world characters. She took us into Kingsley’s past and made me fall in love with him all over again. I swear she is the reason I’m single. No man can compare to a King or a God. She also had me in floods of tears which I was not expecting. And I wish I could quote the part that made me cry. But it would be a spoiler!! Just go read it.
