FLOWERS IN THE STORM

Tom and Ben live on the margins of society, surrounded by drugs, loneliness and abuse. After a failed robbery attempt, they are arrested together and sentenced to five years in prison. Soon, in Wandsworth Prison, the two become victims of physical and sexual violence at the hands of both other inmates and corrupt guards. Their suffering seems endless, while everyone else appears indifferent to what is happening within those walls… or at least until the arrival of the new director, Ancoll, who takes on her role with the intention of protecting them and exposing the network of corruption behind the acts of violence, which seems to extend beyond the prison walls… Flowers in the Storm is a powerful, raw and true novel that shows how solidarity, humanity and love can become a lifeline and a source of hope even in the darkest moments of life.
