Heres the draft blurb for the back of Hard Time 2nd Edition. Your thoughts, feedback, suggested improvements are welcome: As a teenager, Shaun Attwood longs to move from a small UK town to the USA to become a stock-market millionaire. But the dream turns into a nightmare after Shaun throws ecstasy parties for thousands of ravers and a SWAT team smashes his door down. Inside the deadly jail system run by Sheriff Joe Arpaio in Phoenix, Arizona, Shaun struggles to survive against an unpredictable backdrop of gang violence and sickening human-rights violations. Bolstered by the love and support of his fiancée and family, he slowly adapts. Using a tiny pencil sharpened on a cell door, Shaun documents the conditions: dead rats in the food, cockroaches crawling in his ears at night, murders and riots… Smuggled out of a maximum-security jail and posted online, his writing draws the international media spotlight. Join best-selling author Shaun Attwood on a harrowing voyage into the darkest recesses of human existence in Hard Time, the second book from the English Shaun trilogy.
