This 528 page book was written by one of the prisoners who on 01/18/04, took over the gun tower in Buckeye, Az. which became the longest prison hostage standoff in U.S history. I wrote "The Beautiful Losers: Convict's Code "using a pencil so small it barely fit between my fingers and any piece of paper I could get my hands on to send page by page to my sister so she could edit it and put it in a file until I could finish writing the book. It has taken me over seven years to accomplish something I'm very proud of. If you liked the Shawshank Redemption, you will love The Beautiful Losers! It is your ULTIMATE prison story.

This fictional story begins in Arizona's newest prison facility and details how Ronan and Dillon were able to thwart security and take guards hostage as they took control of their cellblock. They intended to issue a list of demands that would better their living conditions, but Ronan kept his true desires for wanting to spark an uprising secret, and "Deathwish" Dillon had his own ulterior motives.

This is a fast paced, thrilling, humorous and sometimes sad story that will keep you on the edge of your seat and the pages turning. It's conclusion is nothing short of stunning. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
