Lay with Dogs - pocketboek

Tilly has spent most of her adult life in the Caribbean, working and bringing up three children. Divorced from their lawyer dad, she remains part of his large family, until, in her mid-forties, to the surprise and consternation of all, she becomes involved with Tim, an old friend of her former husband, and a known drug dealer. Convinced Tim is worth the emotional investment, and believing his promise that he will quit 'the business', Tilly moves with him to England. Unbeknownst to her, Tim, and his accomplice, Mary, have planned a massive importation of drugs. When it is intercepted, Tilly is charged with money-laundering. She is convicted and goes to prison. The experience is beyond eye-openening. But with the devoted support of family and friends, and the colourful cast of characters she meets along the way, Tilly emerges with a new belief in herself and a new understanding of justice.
