A Novel About the Life of a Female Corrections Officer

Becoming a corrections officer and working behind the walls of a maximum security male prison is grueling, especially for a female, because she can be lulled into a false sense of security and become swayed by the flattering remarks of both the male prisoners and the male officers. This is somewhat like the calm before the storm. In this fictional narrative, retired corrections officer Ajut writes about her personal experiences as a female officer. Discover, as she did, that the male prisoners and male officers are one and the same. Both the male prisoner and officer were flagrant in their attempts to violate a womans sense of self-worth. Behind the wall its a mans world. In this world, there is a relentless competition going on over who will be the first to break her in or break her down. The only differences between these two men are the color of their uniforms.
