by Ellen Marie Francisco

Overview

This good girl did everything right for years. So why has everything gone so wrong for this selfmade business woman, Realtor, and mother of two? On a hot day in August she's arrested for car-jacking, assault with a deadly weapon, and robbery. She's just landed in the Incarcer Nation without a passport. Like the millions of women who came before her, she wants to leave the land of chain link, and barbed wire behind her. Fifty-nine days later this good girl gone bad walks out a free woman-or so she thinks.
