The Other Side of the Door

An inmate's fictional view of life inside a Federal maximum prison in Canada. Vern states that this is fiction, but as a retired Correctional Officer who, due to many incidents which included being a hostage a couple of times, once at the point of a gun, and being physically assaulted, which caused him to take time off work to recover and then taking early retirement, he can state that many of the incidents he describes actually did happen.
