About the Book

In 14 Years a Prisoner, Léo delivers a powerful and deeply moving account of his arrest and life inside Thai prisons. Amid overcrowding, corruption, violence, and unexpected friendships, he exposes the brutal workings of a merciless system.

Sentenced to over fourteen years for a counterfeit money scheme born from denial and desperation, he learns the hard way that hell can hide behind the most beautiful of paradises. Back in France after a long and painful journey, he recounts how the shadow of those years still lingers-and how he turns that harrowing experience into a path toward redemption.

"A stark warning about illusions and the price of crossing lines you don't fully understand-told with brutal honesty and dark humor."
