Shaun Attwood arrived in Phoenix, Arizona, a penniless business graduate from a small industrial town in England. Within a decade, he became a stock-market millionaire.

A "Must Listen"
"Hard Time" was compelling and gripping first-person account of time spent in the prison system in Phoenix, Arizona. Shaun Attwood has an amazing capacity to paint a picture with words.
This is a very well-written book which really came to life in this audio version.
Highly recommend.

Hard Time-Good Time!
The story is very good and the writing is surprisingly good. I don’t know if Atwood used a Ghost Writer. The narrator sounds familiar, and his Jamaican accent and female impersonations are unintentionally funny. The narrator did a good job, but I think it would have been better if Attwood narrated the book. It doesn’t sound right to have an American voice reading the book.
