Callgirl

Confessions of a Double Life

All callgirls are depraved and drug-addicted - right? 

No one with any self-respect would ever choose to be a callgirl - right?

Wrong. At the age of 35, Jeannette Angell's life took a shocking turn. Her boyfriend emptied their joint bank account and took off, leaving her penniless. Despite her job as a part-time university teacher, she was an independent, educated woman on the skids. Then she read a newspaper ad for 'escorts'... Uniquely honest, this is the true story of a three year double life - university lecturer by day, callgirl by night. It tells why Angell made her decision, and reveals what happened on her journey into a hidden world.
