Biografía del autor

Wallace was an ordinary guy in his mid thirties working as a full time carer, and a part time nighclub doorman when a car accident changed his life forever. Convicted of dangerous driving which resulted in a death, he was sentenced to five years in prison. His book documents his experiences as he gained the skillls necessary to surive in prison. His unique insight as a non criminal locked up with lifers, rapists, and drug dealers, and easy writing style highlights his desire to lose the skills he needed to surivive inside and his struggle to stay out of prison on his release.
