Book description
'There are 3,000 drugged-up psychopaths, armed to the teeth with
blades, shooters and bombs. That's the only way I can describe Yare.
It's a murderous viper's nest of assassins, cut throats and killers.'
When James Miles and his best friend Paul Loseby were caught
smuggling ten kilos of cocaine out of Caracas, Venezuela, they
couldn't deny their guilt. Young and naive, the lads had thought the
one-off drug mule job would be a passport to a better life. But in
reality it was a ticket to hell ...
They were sentenced to thirty years and flung into the world's
deadliest prison system, ending up in the notorious Yare. A place
where drugs and weaponry are currency and the rules are: there are no rules.
This is the gripping true-life story of how two men endured untold
savagery in the most appalling conditions. It's about what it's like
to witness murder and rape every day, fearing you'll be next. How it
feels to join a dangerous Latino gang and eat dead rats in order to
survive. And, what you do when you're at the centre of a riot between
thousands of men with machine guns.
As seen on Channel 5's
Banged Up Abroad, this is the most shocking prison
story ever told and an inspiring account of human endurance.
James Miles and Paul Loseby were born and raised in Leicester, where
they continue to live until this day.
