Jennifer Spencer is sent to prison for Wall Street fraud. She is snobby, arragant, and judgemental when she first enters prison. But after she realizes she is going to be there for awhile, she breaks down in a dramatic fit and is sent to isolation. Upon returning to the prison community Spencer is befriended by Movita, Cher, Suki, and Theresa, a crew that has many special privliages with the warden.
Because Movita is the warden's assistant, she learns that the prison is going to be taken over by a private company and turned into a production company. This will assure the women will have even more worse conditions than when the state owned it.
Since Jeniffer has many connections and was set up to take the fall of her Wall Street company, she finds away for her and a few others to take over the company that is buying the prison. This allows Jennifer to help build better progams in the prison and help many of the women become rehabilitated instead of just thrown away.
After fourteen months in the prison, Jennifer is finally released into a new life of understanding people better, which helps her manipulate her former boss into getting all her crew pardoned and out of prison.
Goldsmith has a great way of building her charcters so that the reader becomes involved and wants to know more about them. Many more things happen in the 400+ page story that I left out but that leaves more to be inquired.
Some of the story was a little slow toward the end and I think that getting three women pardoned is slightly unrealistic but I guess it all just depends on who you know.
