A fine lady finds herself in Swansea Castle Debtors Prison in the 1850s. Her wealthy husband has died of cholera. As a woman, others manage her investments - badly!

She waits in the cold, dirty cell for her brother to pay her debts and get her released, but it's taking a very long time.

Debra John (in character) really brought this story to life with lots of fascinating anecdotes and detailed descriptions.
