Spice Boys: The shocking reality of drugs, violence and mental health in Britain's prisons

Spice Boys is a shocking journey through the world of incarceration in Great Britain, as told through the eyes of the author.

It examines the proliferation of drugs available in prison, the violence, thieving and bullying that goes hand-in-hand with substance misuse, the self-harm and suicides prompted by poor mental health and even poorer regimes, and the frightening lack of specialist support for those men struggling to survive in this harsh and depressing world.

Experience the author's four-year journey with murderers, drug dealers, burglars, drug addicts, sex offenders, and men who simply couldn't function in the outside world due to mental health issues or learning disabilities, and found prison to be an even harder environment to survive in.

The book examines the workings of the criminal justice system, the motivations behind criminal behaviour and addictions, the sheer boredom of incarceration, and the shocking reality of a lack of rehabilitation.

Told with humour, to offset the bleakness of the violence and lack of support for men drowning in despair, Spice Boys will open your eyes as to the reality of imprisonmnet in Britain today!
