Thriller written by Peter Moffat.

Struggling with life in prison and the enormity of her actions, Juliet is desperate to see her daughter and is destroyed by Ella's rejection of her.

Juliet is charged with the attempted murder of her husband Joe, who remains in a critical condition. She is transferred to prison, where she is shocked by what she encounters. Police investigations focus on her family background, while a social worker takes care of Ella and her future, and makes plans for the unborn baby.

Juliet's solicitor encourages her to understand what has happened, and attempts to penetrate her wall of silence in order to help her. Ella visits her mother in prison and meets her with a stony reaction, which plunges Juliet deeper into turmoil. Show less
