Publisher's Synopsis
An explosive novel of East End violence, the terrors of prison life and the pursuit of justice against all odds. Danger and violence have always been part of Sue Dalston's East End upbringing. Unloved by her mother, abused by her father, and brutalised throughout her entire marriage, she smashes her husband's skull with a claw hammer in a final act of desperation. All that is keeping her sane is the knowledge that her four children are safe from harm. When she is celled up with murderess Matilda Enderby, their fates become inextricably linked. And no one could have predicted the consequences.
