From the back cover

A wife and her young daughter Eve are flung back through time to the era when her husband, José Tourinan, was still a nameless captive — the circus's prized attraction, caged and auctioned for public cruelty because half his face is beautiful and half is a demonic horror. Penniless and still in her loungewear, she watches the bidding begin for the right to whip him.

Facing the cold, uncomprehending eyes of the man he used to be, she introduces herself as his future wife — and his mocking laughter makes his disbelief plain.
