Totally screwed.

This amazing story is totally believable. I've heard of things like this happening and watched movies about prison. So yes I was completely caught up. Thanks.

This book is very graphic and detailed, maybe more so than his other prison days books.

Can make quite a harsh and explicit read.

This is the beginning story about life in a MAX prison. Gangs inside, killers, rapists, and plain evil. It's not just the inmates that are bad, but also the guards. Well written, fast paced, character development well executed, as well as the story line! You're in for an eye opener, it's not life in Mayberry! Gotta get the next book......

Interesting read

It was an interesting read. It left you wanting to keep reading to find out what's next. Just too short to continue buying in my opinion.
