“There was a loud metallic thud as the outside door closed behind Timothy Newman. So this is my new home then, he thought. Prison. Clink. The slammer. Prison is no place for an ordinary, law-abiding, middle-class guy like me, he reflected. Not even Great Yarborough Prison.”
But it turns out that prison life in Great Yarborough has a silver lining for Tim bridge. An expert player, he finds that his ability earns him unlocked-for respect amongst his fellow-prisoners, many of whom pass their time at the card table. This is a bridge novel filled with unusual characters and great deals -- and a bridge game that gives new meaning to the term cut-throat!
