Joint & Several liabilty on repossession shortfall

Abbey National (via Eversheds of Cardiff) looking to me for shortfall in excess £8000 followin g repo on a joint mortgage. Offer to halve my liability, but the figure they quote is merely half of the total shortfall. In essence therefore they are offering me no real reduction. How do I know what they are trying to wring out of the co-mortgagee? I am no longer in contact with her. Do they have to tell me what they are claiming, or manage to get from her? At the moment it looks as though they could claim double the shortfall, that is the same amount from both of us! Anyone got a view or experience here?
