Life couldn't be better for Lucinda Purefoy. She's got a steady boyfriend, a degree in social sciences from Manchester University, and the offer of a high-powered job in advertising. With all this good fortune, isn't it appropriate for her to give something back to society?

With her newly minted membership in Social Carers, Reformers and Praeceptors (SCRAP, for short), a misguided organization that recruits women to become guides, philosophers and friends to ex-convicts coming out of prison, Lucy finds herself standing outside the gates of jail, waiting to greet a career burglar named Terry Keegan. What happens next - after a short and hostile trip to Burger King - confounds expectations and produces a signature Mortimer tale, full of wit and surprise.
