About this listen

Return to HMP Parkhurst in this raw and fascinating account of life as a prison officer.

David Berridge returns with more stories from his time as a prison officer at HMP Parkhurst, giving a uncompromising look at the harsh reality of working in British prisons. From dealing with inmate violence and clearing out defiled prison cells to the unsavoury nature of prison language and life, this is an even more detailed look inside Britain's most infamous prison.

Through it all, David retains his wry humour and offers a much-needed assessment of the state of UK prisons today, the job crisis and poor recruitment, the corruption and gangs running rife, and the mental health epidemic hitting prisoners, causing many to take their own lives.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

I loved the story how it was put together. I have read book one and book 2. I wouldn't say he was moaning. He is just stating facts. simple as.! I didn't like the language.
That he couldn't help how it was.

Having the courage to write these books.
