The shocking, outrageous and highly entertaining biography of one of Australia's most colourful women - dominatrix and courtesan, Gretel Pinniger, aka 'Madame Lash'. Wowsers beware!

Gretel Pinniger, dominatrix, fetishist, artist, and courtesan to the rich and famous has been shocking and outraging Australia for decades.

Never shy of publicity, this introverted daughter of a handsome war hero from the Melbourne establishment once wanted to become a nun. Instead, she threw her leather-clad body into a world of sex, drugs and riotous parties. She danced with Elton John, catered to Clyde Packer's more creative sexual fantasies and was supported by a fabulously wealthy patron, who bequeathed her a generous allowance so long as his name was never disclosed by her.

Despite marrying and becoming a mother, there is nothing ordinary about the outlandish Gretel Pinniger. Join Sam Everingham as he takes you into the colourful reality of Australia's most misunderstood eccentric. This is a portrait as revealing, provocative and outrageous as Madam Lash herself.

About The Author

Sam Everingham is the author of Gordon Barton, a biography of the maverick businessman, who was one of Madam Lash's playmates, and Wild Ride, a lively history of Cobb & Co.
