husband in bed with her 15-year-old sister Belinda, who is spending the weekend

with them. Judith walks out. The next day she consults a solicitor about a divorce.

Later the same day she returns home to collect some of her belongings and is

horrified to discover the naked bodies of her husband and sister on the bed where

she last saw them – both stabbed to death.

Judith is charged and found guilty of the crime. Whilst in jail, and after her

‘arranged’ release, she suffers the most degrading deprivations as she endeavours to

prove that, whatever else, she is not a murderer.
