Item description from seller

SIGNED in full & INSCRIBED by the author in blue ink on inside front cover (full page inscription): "To Rodger. It was nice meeting you. I hope that you enjoy this book more than I enjoyed the bloody research it took to write the damn thing. Best regards, Christopher V.V. Parnell". Additionally, below the inscription Parnell has drawn a large "winking" smiley face similar to the one printed on the final text page. Illustrated with b&w photographs. Front cover blurb: "The shocking true story of an innocent man jailed for over 11 years in Indonesia's most notorious prisons". From rear cover: "Welcome to Christopher Parnell's nightmare. Prepare yourself for a journey into the Indonesian prison system. A world where murder, torture and fights to the death are the norm. Where the guards turn a blind eye to the lethal weapons prisoners carry, and use almost daily. Christopher Parnell, an Australian found guilty of drug trafficking, a crime he did not commit, finds himself catapulted into the maelstrom of madness and degradation that exists within an Asian jail. The Sunday Smuggler is the powerful story of one man's battle to survive in some of the world's cruellest and most inhumane prisons. Surrounded by murderers and sadistic violent criminals, Christopher soon learns that life is as cheap as a single bowl of rice, or a cigarette. During his imprisonment, Parnell was subjected to unthinkable sessions of torture, both physical and psychological. Left to starve and fight every day for his survival, he became a man forced to eat everything from cockroaches to human flesh. This is an incredible tale of fatalism and bureaucracy, of corruption and the horrors of prison, but most of all it is a no-holds-barred account of what the human spirit can endure". Parnell's story was featured on the British TV documentary series Banged Up Abroad (or Locked Up Abroad on National Geographic Channel) (Series 6, Episode 1, 2009). Slight handling wear, otherwise a very nice clean tight solid softcover copy. 280pp. Scarce signed copy with excellent inscription. RARE. SB-56.…
