It was meant to be a two-week holiday in paradise to celebrate her sister's birthday, but for Schapelle Corby it ended in every traveller's darkest nightmare.
She stepped off the plane and into a world of hell after Bali customs officers discovered 4.2 kilos of marijuana in her bag. Her dazzling blue eyes and cries of innocence while facing a possible death sentence turned her into a celebrity overnight. The media couldn't get enough.
Months later, in a humid Bali courtroom brimming with media, her family watched in horror as the judge sentenced her to 20 years in the notorious Bali prison dubbed Hotel K.
Inside, Schapelle suffered the unimaginable; living in a tiny rat-infested concrete cell, surrounded by daily suicides, murders, brutal bashings and overdoses. Outside her family fought tirelessly to prove her innocence.
In this updated edition, Schapelle describes in intimate detail of how she descended into madness and ultimately found strength and her way home.
Written with bestselling author Kathryn Bonella, this is an utterly compelling and unsettling tale that you won't be able to put down.
