About this listen

Horrifying, heartbreaking and eye-opening, these are the stories, the patients and the cases that have characterised a career spent behind bars.

The no-holds-barred memoirs of a GP who went from working at a quiet suburban practice to treating the country’s most dangerous criminals - first in young offenders’ institutions, then at the notorious Wormwood Scrubs and finally at Europe’s largest women-only prison in Europe, Bronzefield.

Great book from start to finish. Sometimes sad. The reader is one of the best I have listened to.

Interesting to hear from a doctors perspective.
Loved every minute of it. 100% would recommend this. The narrator had a nice calming easy to listen to type of voice also.

Loved it!

True to life

Didn't love this..quite interesting but badly written and the attempt at accents by the narrator was excruciating. I felt that the author was expecting us to sympathise with her, but I just didn't feel it.

Spoilt by narration

Good narration but short and surprisingly a little lightweight. Thought it might be more insightful but not a bad listen.

Ok
