Slaving Away (Series 1)

Audible Originals

Please note: contains strong language and adult content.

Meet Miranda. She is a cheerful and happy-go-lucky single girl who just happens to be a dominatrix with a dungeon in her flat where she services clients with flogging and extreme correction and (if she's lucky) gets the occasional slave to pay her for the honour of doing her vacuuming.

When she's not delivering 30 lashes to the sensitive parts of religious zealots or doing step aerobics in stilettos on the buttocks of retired army officers, she is just trying to get on with the neighbours and make her flatmate, Dan, realise that in spite of what he may think of her job, she could just be the girl of his dreams (and not just his nightmares).

This a refreshingly funny and joyfully rude sitcom that proudly celebrates sex, nonconformity, and doing the wrong thing.

As an Audio Show - free for members - when you add Slaving Away to your library, you'll get all 6 episodes, each with a runtime of about 30 minutes.

She suspects it's the work of her nemesis, Mistress Laveen. Although business is affected by the bad reviews, she also ends up getting some of her weirdest clients yet, who yearn to be treated every bit as poorly as the troll reviews suggest.

Realising the gulf between what she offers and what Mistress Laveen offers, Miranda decides to up her game.

Sexual services and kinky perversions abound in Miranda's world. Business would be booming if it wasn't for time wasting clients. Can she spot them? Can she fob them off? Which isn't a euphemism by the way. She also meets Steve, who is either a serial killer masquerading as a driving instructor or just the victim of spending every waking hour cooped up in a Nissan Micra with only a copy of the Daily Express to hand.
