- Summary
- In 2016, London's HM Prison Holloway - the largest women's prison in Western Europe - closed its doors. In its 160 years it had housed some of the most high-profile female prisoners of all time. They were imprisoned for treason and murder, for begging, performing abortions and stealing clothing coupons, for masquerading as men, running brothels and attempting suicide. In Bad Girls, Caitlin Davies tells their stories and shows how women have been treated in our justice system over more than a century, what crimes - real or imagined - they committed, who found them guilty and why.
