In July 1983, James Morgan Kane returned home in the evening to find a corpse in his living room. Fearing that he would be held responsible, and sensing that his wife was involved, he wanted to do all he could to protect his young family. Jamie worked through the night to dispose of the body. But his luck ran out days later, as he was arrested and sentenced to 13 years in prison.

Jamie entered the American prison system and was to stay there for 34 years with stints in San Quentin, Folsom State Prison and the notorious Deuel Vocational Institution in California. He would rub shoulders with some of the world's most infamous serial killers and gangs. This book tells of his time locked up with no hope of release, living the brutality of the tough and unforgiving American penitentiary system and finding his new purpose in life.

I appreciate someone who can face an injustice at every turn and still attempt to be a decent person. The American government and criminal justice system should be ashamed at how they acted.

Mr. Kane is a wonderful writer who drags you into the clutches of his world so deeply you forget its not your own. He expresses his past and his struggles in ways I rarely see and relate with personally very deeply. The level of kindness, nuiance and empathy he puts into all of his work and description of himself vs others is so refreshing. I am so grateful to have found this and will be buying a physical copy soon.

I remember learning about Jamie through youtube. I actually sent him and email a while ago when I was down. His reply lifted me. I don’t think I’ll ever understand why some of the most compassionate and understanding people have always gone through something treacherous. I was throw back listening to this book. What a life. I’m glad your out and about in England my brotha! Your book was amazing! RECON!!

The story about the officers telling you that you can only talk to the guy next to you had me laughing hysterically. I work for the federal system and this made my day.

Jamie really did a well job illustrating just how bizarre his life is/was and uniquely his. It’s a life not many could pull off. I imagine I will think about Jamie for the rest of my days.

What a crazy life. I am glad he shared his story and is doing well.

Once he claimed he had a place at the Air Force Academy my BS meter caught fire. Still, it caught my interest.
