In the wake of Ruth Ellis' posthumous conditional pardon in July 2026, this audiobook delves into the life of one of Britain's most notorious figures amidst her infamous legal case. Set against the backdrop of Easter Sunday in 1955, the narrative unravels the tragic events leading to the death of Ruth's lover, David Blakely, as she reflects on her youth during World War II while awaiting trial in Holloway Prison. Concurrently, Kitty Carrington, an assistant to Ruth's lawyer, navigates the challenges of the 1950s legal landscape, striving to secure justice for Ruth amid a complex web of secrets and betrayal. This gripping exploration invites listeners to reconsider the narratives surrounding these two women and the societal constraints they faced.
