Summary Note "'The only door in the room was now closed... Slowly, I glanced at the secured metal door and the red duress button on the wall next to it. I looked at the prisoners and wondered, if it came to it, would I be able to press that button or get out the door before they could get to me? I didn't fancy my chances...' 'The criminal class' is based on the true-life experiences of an everyday teacher who makes the precarious career transition to an Education Officer in the prison system. Dealing with both the law enforcers and the law breakers, but not bound by any normal allegiances, he finds himself having to trod the rocky path of an outsider on the inside. His surreal experiences will compel you as they draw you in. The bizarreness he encountered will make you shake your head, pump your fist, cry your heart out, laugh your head off and blow your mind." - Back cover.
