Ceremony of Innocence is a complete departure from the world of Gladys Swan's previous novels, The Carnival Quintet and her New Mexico trilogy. This novel deals with the effects of subjugation of the individual and the tyranny and violence of governments. It is the story of an American woman, Florrie, who must put her life together after being betrayed by her lover, then having to escape from a man she despises, who invades her apartment and takes over her life. The action is set in Copenhagen, Venice during the Carnival, and Prague.
