About This Book

"Rikers Island - just six miles from the Empire State Building - is one of the largest, most complex and expensive penal institutions in the world, yet most New Yorkers couldn't find it on a map. Like many prisons in America, Riker performs an expert magic trick: it disappears people, keeping in those who want to get out and keeping out those who want to get in.".

"Jennifer Wynn has been going in for seven years. She entered first as a journalist, volunteered as a writing teacher, and then served as director of a unique rehabilitation program known as Fresh Start."--BOOK JACKET.
