Summary

Most people who go to prison don’t go willingly. The same cannot be said for corrections officers, who take on one of the most dangerous jobs in America.

Liam Donnelly’s new profession requires him to spend most of his time in a women’s correctional institution. Norrington houses the worst female offenders in the country, but with his dog in need of cancer treatment, Liam is desperate for cash, and works whatever overtime shifts the captain offers. But it’s simply not enough.

When inmate Zoe Hallister is brought to Liam’s unit, he begins a criminal partnership with her, running dope, cellphones, and other contraband into the prison. Zoe even pairs him with a drug dealer on the outside—her unstable cousin, Dennis.

Tensions rise as the privately-owned prison fills with narcotics. Violent attacks increase. Predators thrive. Prisoners reconnect with their old gang members. Liam knows things are getting too dangerous, but his feelings for Zoe continue him down a dark path. Soon he realizes he’s not as in control of the situation as he thought he was, and finds himself in a world he no longer recognizes as Zoe drives Norrington into chaos.

this was a great listen. My only criticism is that I didn't like the ending. It starts out realistically telling the story about how a guy desperate for a job becomes a prison guard at a woman's prison and gradually it gets more and more crazy. Gradually this guy becomes more and more corrupt until By the end he is completely corrupt- which may be realistic, but to me wasn't a good ending, it was a sad ending. Anyway despite this it was such a good listen anyway. I just would have preferred a happier ending where he quits the job and leaves town with his dog or something like that instead

Breaking Bad but more realistic
