It was the year when he was arrested at Istanbul airport, tried, and sentenced to 30 in a Turkish jail. For five years he suffered the filth, brutality and degradation of imprisonment in an environment of hellish squalor, while his family fought in vain to secure his release. Finally in desperation, he made a daring escape bid and incredibly the bid succeeded. This is the true story, told in Billy Hayes's own words, of those five years of living hell and of the harrowing ordeal of his time on the run. *** Quantity Available: 1.
