A gritty read about the criminal underworld in Britain, particularly London. Donna Brunos is surprised when her businessman husband is arrested on charges associated with an armed robbery when a security guard is killed and he gets 18 years. She begins to run his businesses for him and begins to uncover a lot of things she did not know about him and the things he was involved him, the sex industry and brutal violence, and she begins to realise he was guilty after all. He then asks her to help him break out of prison, she is putting herself at risk to do this but she loves him so much she would do anything for him. I could not believe how naive she was about her scoundrel husband and even though the book was quite well written I thought it was too long.
