This true story records the life of a clever drug dealer named Thomas McFadden. He is in fact a kind person with a good heart but unfortunately gets carried away by his risky personality. Through the journey of his time in jail he changes almost entirely. He starts to take the time to think about the risks in his life and what he has become, and after his six years in jail, he changes from a law offender into a solid, moral person.
Follow Thomas’s adventure from the beginning when he puts his trust into the wrong person’s hands and gets sent to the strangest jail in the world, located in Bolivia. He arrives in the prisons and finds himself in big debt because he has to pay to enter the jail and buy his own cell! To overcome his debt he slowly starts a tour group, allowing backpackers from all over the world into the prison and even stay overnight. The main attraction of his tour is the finest cocaine in the world which is produced in the prison!
This story tells us about friendship, corruption and cocaine but the main moral of it, is that it is never too late to change your ways. There is always time to go back to the innocent little person you first are when you are born. He couldn’t have done this without his friends, all of who supported him through his horrific times in the San Pedro jail and looked up to him for leadership. They are the people who changed Thomas into what he ended up being.
I highly recommend this book to all the mature readers out there. It hooks you after the first page and after that there is no way out but to finish it.
