"Helen is serving a life sentence at Sloatsburg women's prison for the murder of her children. Dr. Louise Forrest, a recently divorced mother of an eight-year-old boy, is the new chief of psychiatry there. Captain Ike Bradshaw is the corrections officer who wants her. And Angie, an ambitious Hollywood starlet contacted by Helen, is intent on nothing but fame. Drawing these four characters together in a story of shocking and disturbing revelations, The Big Girls is an electrifying novel about the anarchy of families, the sometimes destructive power of maternal instinct, and the cult of celebrity.--From publisher description."
"Helen Nash, schizophrène condamnée à perpétuité pour le meurtre de ses deux enfants, est suivie par le docteur Louise Forrest, la nouvelle psychiatre du pénitencier de Sloatburg, dans l'Etat de New York. Ce thriller littéraire porte un regard ambigu sur les réalités de la vie carcérale."
