The Blurb On The Back:
”Where’s a place in the world for me?
How do I move on with my life?
I’ve done my time.”
Meet the women inside Britain’s biggest female-only prison. The ‘frequent flyers’. The lifers. And the mothers with their babies behind bars.
With her trademark insight and compassion, Dr Amanda Brown shares the most horrifying, heartbreaking tories of the women inside.
From drug addiction to child abuse, self-harm to sex work, the women in her care have been both perpetrators and victims of terrible crimes. But Amanda is doctor to them all.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
Dr Amanda Brown is a GP who has previously worked in a youth detention centre and Wormwood Scrubs and currently works at Bronzefield. This compassionate sequel to THE PRISON DOCTOR focuses on her work at Bronzefield and provides an interesting insight into what drives some women to crime and the role of homelessness but the tone of the anecdotes never quite rings true and you never find out what happens to the women after their diagnoses.
