About this listen

Previously published as 'You'll Never See Daylight Again'

The gritty prison memoir of Michaella McCollum, one half of the infamous 'Peru Two', imprisoned in a Peruvian jail for attempting to smuggle 11kg of cocaine from Peru to Madrid in August 2013.

She was just a regular girl, spending the summer working at a bar in Ibiza, until she was approached by a man who asked her if she'd like to make some quick, easy money...and it would change her life forever. This is the truth of her time in prison, told through her own diaries and letters to her mother, family and friends, recounting tales of vicious guards, psychotic inmates and horrendous prison conditions.

A brilliantly affecting tale of a naïve young girl who starts out in the Ibiza party scene and comes of age in the dark heart of Peru, before finally emerging into the sun a stronger, more confident, mature young woman.

This story really tells how precious life is and how many people in this world don’t appreciate the little thing we all take for granted in every day life! I hope many young people get a chance to listen to this book!

Eye opener to many young teenagers!

Great listen

This is a good audiobook BUT how much of it is true? She lied about sectarian attacks so what else is a lie?

Good but how much of it is true?

Good book, strong woman, but missing a lot of detail. Also didn’t mention how a Irish charity paid hundreds of thousands of euros on flying solicitors and her family out!

Watch the documentary first
