Publisher Description
Prepare yourself for a journey into the indonesian penal system, a world where murder, torture and fights to the death are the norm.
Hell's Prisoner is the powerful story of one man's battle to survive in some of the world's cruellest and most inhumane prisons. Christopher Parnell, wrongly accused of drug trafficking, found himself catapulted into the maelstrom of madness and degradation that exists within Indonesian jails. Surrounded by murderers and sadistic, violent criminals, he soon learned that life can be as cheap as a bowl of rice or a cigarette.
During his imprisonment, Parnell was subjected to unthinkable sessions of torture, both physical and psychological. Left to starve and fight every day for his survival, he was forced to eat everything from cockroaches to human flesh.
This is an incredible tale of fatalism and bureaucracy, of corruption and the horrors of prison, but most of all it is a no-holds-barred account of what the human spirit can endure.

Hells prisoner
That is the worst book my eyes have ever witnessed
Very Interesting and shocking!
A very interesting book! I could not put it down. a sad story which is also shocking. how can so many bad things happen to one man, loved the great descriptions of fellow inmates and language/foreign phrases used. a book not for the faint hearted, very graphic descriptions/ gory but truthful. would have been nice to find out about other inmates and cell mates, for example the chook, an what happened to them. a good read! definitely worth the buy!!
