This review is from: Prisoner's Friend (Black Dagger Crimes) (Hardcover)

Robert Ashe was a veterinarium by profession, but, as he'd explained to his wife, he couldn't spend all his time taking care of animals. So he signed up to be a prisoner's friend. In England this means you go weekly to visit a prisoner, help them keep in touch with their family, to show that the society they hurt has not withdrawn from them. Then when prisoner is released, the friend also helps watch over them and steer them down the right path.

Ashe had chosen Terry Booth to help. Booth was a powerfully built young man of 23 with a scarred face. Ashe got him a job at a local gas station when Booth was released. Booth seemed dissatisfied with it until he met a girl...the gas station owner's pretty young housemaid.

Suddenly Ashe's hopes for him were dashed thoroughly.
