Martha Marte Chimes never thought she'd see the outside of a prison cell again. Convicted for a judge's murder she didn't commit; she was the perfect fall guy for a city desperate for a quick conviction. Now, facing the parole board, her mind races through the choices that brought her here: a promising modeling career derailed by a pregnancy, the agonizing decision to give up her baby girl for adoption, and the devastating discovery that her newborn son was stolen and sold by a corrupt doctor.
That profound loss fueled a fire in her, leading her to form WASP, a clandestine group of women who took the law into their own hands to protect young girls from predators. This vigilante work, however, placed her at the scene of Judge Frondes's murder. She tried to save him, but when he died, she shielded the real killer-a teenage girl he had abused. Taking the blame, Martha lost her freedom but found a new purpose behind bars, helping other inmates. She clung to the hope of one day reclaiming her life and finding the children she lost. Her fight for freedom is just the beginning of her final battle for redemption.
