From the Sunday Times Bestselling author Dr Amanda Brown Revisit the wold of The Prison Doctor, as she describes stories of her time spent with foreign national prisoners. DANGER. DEPORTATION. DEATH. These are just some of the fates facing the inmates atHuntercombe prison. Some have fled their homeland in fear of their lives.Others are being sent to a country they left decadesago. But Dr Amanda Brown is doing all she can for eachpatient stuck in no-man’s land. They have little or no ideaof what awaits them outside, but she treats them withkindness and respect. Whatever their crime, and whatevertheir future holds, she is still their doctor. The Final Sentence Dr Amanda Brown is a GP at the largest women-only prison in Europe, Bronzefield. Before transferring to work in prisons, Amanda was a regular NHS GP but gave up her practice because she disliked the way the job’s focus has shifted. She went on to work at a teenage detention centre, before moving on to Wormwood Scrubs and then finally to Bronzefield where she continues to work. The Final Sentence • Hot off the heels of the success of The Prison Doctor series, comes Amanda Brown’s third book of a doctor behind bars. • Amanda is a GP at the largest women-only prison in Europe, Bronzefield • She has a reputation amongst her patients as “the doctor who actually listens”, and although she makes a point of never asking what they’ve been imprisoned for, her wonderful kindness means the women want to confide in her and she gets to hear about their former lives as she begins to treat them. As a result, she has many eye-opening stories about her patients, the relationships she forms and the truly harrowing realities of life on the inside.  • Amanda was a regular NHS GP but she gave up her practice because she disliked the way the job’s focus had shifted. The pressure to tick boxes and meet quotas seemed to have replaced the desire to help patients, which had drawn her into medicine in the first place. She’s in a strong position to add her voice to the ongoing topical NHS debate. • Most of the bestselling medical memoirs have been told from a man’s perspective and fewer still have offered an unparalleled insight into life behind bars and the myriad economic and social factors that lead women there.
