A shocking thriller inspired by the true stories of a male prison
officer in a women's prison...Prison Officer Jim Dalton works on
the male side of HMP Peterborough. It's a dangerous place, fuelled
by testosterone-driven violence, but he has the prisoners' respect.
When Dalton is transferred to the female side of the prison, his
next shift is so easy he can't believe that the officers over there
get paid the same wages. He sleeps well for the first time in
years. Billie hasn't had it easy in life, and she has earned the
nickname Damage because she has been known to cause some! Ending up
in prison might have been inevitable, but Billie hasn't given up on
her dreams yet. If there's a way to get out of prison faster, she's
going to find it. When Dalton is assigned to the young offenders'
wing, dealing with female prisoners no longer seems so simple, and
in Billie he fears he may have met his match. As Billie starts to
turn the screw, Dalton faces losing everything... Taking a break
from his bestselling DI Barton series, Ross Greenwood returns with
this shocking, page-turning and utterly compelling glimpse behind
the bars of a women's prison. From a man who walked the landings
himself... Praise for Ross Greenwood: 'Move over Rebus and Morse; a
new entry has joined the list of great crime investigators in the
form of Detective Inspector John Barton. A rich cast of characters
and an explosive plot kept me turning the pages until the final
dramatic twist.' author Richard Burke 'Master of the psychological
thriller genre Ross Greenwood once again proves his talent for
creating engrossing and gritty novels that draw you right in and
won't let go until you've reached the shocking ending.' Caroline
Vincent at Bitsaboutbooks blog 'Ross Greenwood doesn't write
cliches. What he has written here is a fast-paced, action-filled
puzzle with believable characters that's spiced with a lot of
humour.' author Kath Middleton
