Real page turner! - Rated
Bought this at the departure lounge to read on the beach while on holiday. Started to read while bored waiting for the plane to take off and found i was unable to put it down once i started. Suffice to say id finished the book before i landed in eygpt. Easy gripping read that i became completely absorbed in. Highly recommend.
A pretty honest account of Thai (in)justice - Rated
This is a gripping and easy read (you will get through it in a day or two). It would be quite easy to see this made into a movie. The book seemed to dwell more on the horrors of the Thai (in)justice system rather that sordid tales of life behind bard in Thailand.. although there were enough of them too. It comes across as a pretty honest account and having spent some time living in Thailand, I was almost wincing at how naive he was at the start of his ordeal. You can't help, but feel for the guy and how he was conned, betrayed, taken advantage of. The type of story that put life into perspective.
Phantastic read - Rated
I have read a few "Thai prison" books and this one is among the best, without a doubt. Not only does it tell you about the horrors of the Thai penal system, but equally shocking, about the human treason and betrayal of the worst sort. This book definitely made me think twice about ever going to Thailand again. I am sure it is a nice country, but it is probably not safe. Unlike some other reviewers, I felt that Martin's story was very credible and it is most of all consistent with other accounts (i.e. Fellow's book for example).
I read this book in a sleepless night and it was impossible for me to put it down.
A fantastic read; great insight into 'justice' in Thailand - Rated
In many ways this was an easy read, because I had read half the book before I even realised it, but the material was hard to take in. I have read several books about Thai jails, but this was far superior in its writing style and capitivating story line.
This story differs from others in that the author was actually innocent - in all the other books they are drug dealers who end up in prison. This man just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, which makes it all the more compelling. It could happen to anyone. A great book; well worth getting.
Unbelievable - Rated
What a book...as a fellow Irishman who had planned to travel to thailand i'm glad I read this book.It gave me an insight to how cruel people can be if you dont have money to pay for your freedom.It opened my eye's to a sinister world where money can buy you almost anything.This is a must read book for anybody who love's reading.
