Best book I read in ages' Sophie van Llewyn, author of Bottled Goods Dr Janet Palmer was glad to take a new job as lead psychologist at a remote Norfolk prison.

I have to admit, this can sometimes but hard and difficult material to read, however it is displayed tastefully and balanced appropriately, and is so worth the read.

Meanwhile another woman, Victoria, referred to herself on multiple occasions as a conqueress: Victoria Victrix. Amara was such a perfect protagonist for this novel, even if, as a character, she was imperfect and had flaws. I loved and admired her loyalty to her friends as well as her determination to be free - even if some of the means she went to were very troublesome.

You can feel the suffocating bustle of the women at the Vinalia, you can feel the comradeship of the women as they move through the streets, and you can feel their terror, their hatred, their relief, and their love. It is wholly encapsulating. Some of the balconies even had amphorae - the conical-shaped terra cotta vases that were used to hold wine and oil in ancient Roman times.
