A chilling look into the brutality of life behind bars and what it’s like to be locked away with some of the world’s most dangerous criminals. Widely known in the criminal underworld as the ‘Black Widow’, Linda Calvey spent the first half of her life running with the UK’s top gangsters, robbing banks and rubbing shoulders with the Kray twins.
