"Dealing: Women in The Drug Economy focuses on 16 women in inner suburban Melbourne. Denton traces their lives as they leave prison, rejoin the drug economy, and sometimes return to jail. Drawing on eyewitness accounts, this is a detailed examination of why women enter the drug business, how they run their operations and how they manage relations with customers, employees and the criminal justice system."—Jacket.
