About this listen

When career criminal Terry Greene is sentenced to life for a murder he didn't commit, his wife has two choices: to walk away from the criminal empire he'd built up, or to take it over - to become as big a gangster as her husband.

So far as Samantha "Sam" Greene is concerned, there is no choice. All the family's assets are tied up in the business, and the family means more to her than anything else. But being a gangland boss doesn't come easily to Sam - other criminals are trying to take over her husband's empire and she's not sure which of his friends she can trust.

As she is drawn into a world of drug-dealing and counterfeit money, she realises for the first time the extent of her husband's activities. And she has two questions to answer - can she get her husband out of prison? And should she?

This was a great story which kept me on tenterhooks all the way through. I was hardly able to put my phone away. That said I was disappointed with the narrator. The main character was portrayed perfectly, most of the lead characters were cool too. However where accents were used the narrator failed badly and I'm surprised they were passed. Great book that needs to be redone!!
