Publisher Description

This is a true story of a journey to hell and back.


In 1994 John Hoskison was a highly respected and successful professional golfer. Then, one evening, after a tournament, he broke a rule of his life by drinking and driving and on the way home he hit and killed a cyclist.


Hoskison knew he'd never escape the pain he'd caused and felt a prison sentence was justified.


As a non-violent first offender, he could have expected to serve part of his sentence in an open prison, but was instead consigned to some of the toughest in Britain; places of medieval-like squalor and violence.


REVIEWS"

"This is a must read book. Not just an insight into how prison really is but a real life story that illustrates just how quickly your life can turn upside down. There but for the grace of God..." ~John Francome, Author and Champion Jockey.


"...a searingly honest account. John Hoskison tells it like it is, as opposed to what gets portrayed on TV or at the cinema." ~Professor David Wilson, Professor of Criminology at Birmingham City University; former Prison Governor. January, 2012

Great book

Interesting as there are no exaggerations and the story is too the point.
Not an action story like I was hoping for but at the same time not dull.
I could picture the boredom an inmate must go through.
Although this author was lucky the story tells of all the dangers that exist. Provides a vivid picture of the inside and the druggies that you cope with daily.
I don't get to read a lot but was able to finish this book from start to finish.
