Framed. Imprisoned. Pregnant.
Jenna thought she had the perfect life: a loving fiance, a great job, a beautiful home. Then she finds her stepdaughter murdered; her partner missing.
And the police think she did it...
Locked up to await trial, surrounded by prisoners who'd hurt her if they knew what she's accused of, certain someone close to her has framed her, Jenna knows what she needs to do:
Clear her name
Save her baby
Find the killer
But can she do it in time?

Rezensionen / Stimmen
An angry, powerful read - one of those rare crime novels with more to deliver than routine thrills. -- Mick Herron, author of <i>London Rules</i> 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 <i>No Further Questions</i> 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 <i>The Stranger Diaries</i> ON MY LIFE by Angela Clarke is a heart-rending mystery, and an unflinching study of life in the prison system. -- Stuart Neville, author of <i>So Say The Fallen</i> Mesmerising and unflinching. Angela Clarke's meticulously researched book expertly captures the sense of fear and dog-eat-dog mentality that permeates our institutions. A propulsive, utterly compelling novel. -- Fiona Cummins A compelling, vividly realised prison drama with a mystery at its heart. Hugely enjoyed it. -- Steve Cavanagh, author of <i>Thirteen</i> It's her best yet. ON MY LIFE is a claustrophobic helter skelter that had me racing to the end to find out who was telling the truth! -- Katerina Diamond, author of <i>The Promise</i> Intelligent, pacy thriller... Taut, claustrophobic, fast-paced, moving. An incredibly gripping read. -- Will Dean, author of <i>Dark Pines</i> Compelling, intense, and breathtakingly brilliant. -- Angela Marsons, author of the DI Kim Stone novels This book was so heaped with tension, threat and menace that I had to read it very quickly! Absolutely engrossing and entertaining as well as being a searing indictment of the penal system. This is an eye-opening, jaw-dropping read that will keep you up to the wee small hours. -- Liz Nugent, author of <i>Skin Deep</i>
