Synopsis

This is an outrageous story that was told to me by a violent and colorful prisoner nicknamed Rooster.

In expanding and retelling that story here, I imagined what some of the characters may have looked like, what they may have said, and even what they may have thought, all based on a composite of people I have known and the experiences I’ve had during my forty-six years spent in fifteen different prisons. It’s also the true story of an older prisoner I befriended named Jack. Jack’s story, while not as violent, is equally memorable - and sadly, all too common in America’s prisons.

This book is about friendship, loyalty, commonalities, and perseverance. Above all, it’s about daring to hope while in an apparently hopeless situation.
