On My Life

De: Angela Clarke

Narrado por: Sarah Durham

When a pregnant woman is imprisoned on suspicion of murder, she must fight to prove her innocence from behind bars or her baby may be given away to whoever framed her...

Framed. Imprisoned. Pregnant. It's her worst nightmare...

Jenna Burns thought she had the perfect life: a loving fiancé, a great job, a beautiful home.

Then she returns home one day to find her stepdaughter murdered; her partner missing.

And the police think it was her...

Jenna knows she's been framed. But how can she prove it from behind bars?

And then she finds out she is pregnant.
It's not only her life at stake.

Surrounded by prisoners who'd hurt her if they knew what she's accused of; aware that someone outside hates her enough to kill; Jenna will do whatever it takes to clear her name, save her baby, and find out the truth.

But can she do it in time?

Reseñas de la Crítica

An angry, powerful read - one of those rare crime novels with more to deliver than routine thrills. (Mick Herron, author of London Rules)

I loved it. A searing take on the treatment of women in prison as well as a fast-paced and smart thriller. (Gillian McAllister, author of No Further Questions)

What an amazing, roller-coaster ride and also a searing indictment of the way women are treated in prison. Highly recommended. (Elly Griffiths, author of The Stranger Diaries)

A compelling thriller with superior writing.

This book was very fast paced with well described action scenes and carefully chosen details. Overall, a tightly written thriller with a sympathetic heroine. Not enough clues to make it possible to figure major plot points out. Solid B+

Roller Coaster from Start to Finish

Wow, this book is pretty great. On My Life had me hooked from the beginning and hanging on for MY life. The adventures of Jenna, the "Blonde Slayer," in prison, are gripping, as she navigates her way through a brutal system on remand, awaiting trial and has only herself to rely on to save her from a life sentence if she cannot show a court that she didn't commit a horrible crime. Frankly, I couldn't stop listening. This book is intense and grabs on to your basic instincts of survival as you follow Jenna's story. The narration is spot on. Loved it and highly recommend!

A story about prison life in the UK

If you are looking for a day by day of what prison life is like in a woman's prison in the UK this is your book. If you just want the real story in this book, read the first few chapters and then skip ahead to chapter 78 and listen to the rest and you will have the whole story minus the prison stint the main character did. The so-called twist was not very good at all. I would recommend you NOT waste a credit on this one.
