Death Row Breakout Stories cover

Death Row Breakout Stories brings together seven previously unseen short stories that draw fully on Edward Bunker's incomparable experience of the U.S. prison system.

The title story Death Row Breakout details the routine of being on Death Row, before exploding into action when the plans for a breakout kick in. In L.A. Justice, a black man falls foul of the law after a minor traffic incident and once inside the prison system he finds it a labyrinth impossible to escape from... As James Ellroy says `by an ex-criminal, from the unregenerately criminal viewpoint...'

I don't know if any politicians read Bunker. But they should -- Cathi Unsworth * The Guardian *
Brilliant... truly thrilling reading * Dazed and Confused *
