An eye-opening, thought-provoking and mind-blowing account from a genuine prison governor of what it's really like behind bars.

How do you bring order to the lawless?

The Secret Prison Governor has spent decades surrounded by every type of prisoner known to man, from petty thieves and common drug dealers to crime bosses and dangerous serial killers.

Since starting as a rookie, he has experienced the reality of the UK's harsh prison system and the hard challenge of ruling those within it.

In his own words, the Secret Prison Governor spares no detail of prison life, whether that's breaking up shiv fights, investigating and crushing vast networks of contraband, negotiating with hardened criminals or dealing with full-scale cellblock gang wars.

What a guy! What a career!

An extremely well balanced insight into the UK prison system, staff and inmates. I salute those who work in the prison system and are there to drive positive change.

From the authors experience, it’s evident that there’s a huge challenge to rehabilitate and prepare individuals for re-entering society and not re-offend. The lack of financial backing has such a detrimental impact and begs the question - what are the UK politicians doing to support UK citizens?

I truly hope this author shares more of his experiences.

Absolutely superb!

Honest and thoughtful reflection of the prison system.

He argues that if we do not treat prisoners humanely and give them hope, then as a society we cannot expect them to come out of prison with nothing and not turn to crime again. He is also rather critical of the corruption that permeates the system from high to low, and the disregard shown to prisoners and prison officers safety, from each other and from government organizations, especially the police and security services.

At the moment this book is free to read for Audible subscribers; however, I would have happily bought it with a credit and not felt shortchanged.

Really good read.

The thing I took away from this book was no wonder some prisoners come out and reoffend. They’ll have a better life in there than outside. This governor is woke AF. Even with preds and murderers.

Inciteful and mature. I have recently listened to lots of prison related material and I was beginning to feel a little down trodden by older generation, retired officers attitudes and undertones of bigotry. This book is bueatifully read, addresses issues and explains them. Despite the brick walls and hurdles there are good people in the prison service that fight hard for much needed change with firm but fair reasoning and professionalism to move forward with the times.

Excellent! inciteful and mature.
