Shaun Pinner was a retired and decorated British soldier, living a peaceful and happy life in Mariupol with his Ukrainian family.

What follows is the true story of his six months spent imprisoned in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

After the horrors of frontline fighting, Shaun had to survive his capture by the Russian soldiers, and his removal to a Black Site - an off-the-grid prison untethered to human rights conventions - where he was subjected to a campaign of torture by Putin's secret police.

It saw him shocked with electricity, stabbed, beaten, and almost starved to death, all while trying to maintain his morale with the other POWs.

Shaun tells a story that is both an unstoppable record of the fierceness of the fighting and a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit.

I loved the heartache and I hated that it ended before the war was won

The story

Shaun's emotion shows as he recounts the war in Ukraine, specifically when he talks about his time in the Siege of Mariupol, the loss of comrades, and his drive to "live, fight, and survive!" as his wife told him to. His story is a must to hear, and brings to bear the brutality of the Russian war machine on the Ukrainian people and Prisoners of War.

Amazing documentary on the author's journey with Ukraine and the horrors of Russian captivity. Great eye opening book on the atrocities that Russia commits in the current day and the importance of the freedom of the press. God bless the author and his path to recovery. The book is a definite must read!

The story and the telling of it brought me to where it was happening and when, a literary feat. All of it, the ‘ good, the bad, and ugly’’. Shaun’s story along side brothers and sisters in arms will stand as a witness of the horrors of war and russia. God speed to the Ukrainian army and brothers and sisters in arms. Slava Ukraini.
