Summary

The gripping story of life on the inside and the outside of one of Britain's toughest prisons.

Donna Brunos worships her husband and is devastated when he is jailed for armed robbery. Georgio swears he's been set up and persuades Donna to help him escape. Implementing 'the jump' takes Donna into a twilight world she never believed existed - a world of brutal sex and casual violence. Finally, she is confronted by a series of shattering revelations that threaten not only everything she believes in but also, ultimately, her own life....

Brilliant - with a few reservations!

Just listening for the second time - I listened a year ago and fancied another go. I listened more critically the 2nd time around, and now realise the book could have been 2 hours shorter had all the unnecessary filler stuff been taken out, along with the repetitive phrases. Some of the narrator's pronunciations, eg womb instead of room grated. Overall though I enjoyed this brilliantly crafted story. I know nothing of villains and prisons, and if this is a true representation of how they function, then it's scary stuff indeed. I do so wish the 'r' wasn't pronounced as a 'w' though. Loved the ending, which I didn't see coming!

Great story

Another great twisting story from Martina. I would say the lead character 'Donna' irritated me but I'm guessing that was supposed to happen.

Twists all the way

A typical Martina Cole setting, amongst villains and the more pure in heart. Loyal, naive Donna is willing to support her husband, Georgio, in everything. Events and knowledge see her evolve into a strong, assertive woman, whose integrity helps her become a survivor in its truest sense. Annie Aldington does great credit to this long, involved story in my opinion. A great listen.

One of her best

Fantastic story and characters brought to life by a talented narrator. I promise you won't regret this one - this was written when MC had the gift.
