  <abstract>Helen, a troubled inmate at Sloatsburg women's prison, is  serving a life sentence for the murder of her children.  Dr. Louise Forrest, the recently divorced mother of an  eight-year-old boy, has foresworn the Park Avenue  practice for which she trained in favor of the chief of  psychiatry job at Sloatsburg. Former New York City  narcotics detective Ike Bradshaw is a sardonic  corrections officer at the prison. And Angie, an  ambitious Hollywood starlet, is intent on nothing but  achieving fame. As the alternating narratives unfold,  mysteries are revealed and the surprising connection  between them is uncovered.</abstract>
