About this listen

Twenty-year-old Lisa Marie Smith, the only child of an insurance millionaire, is arrested and thrown into a putrid Thai prison.


For five torturous months, she is detained Bangkok’s Klong Prem women's prison.


This is the story of how she survived the prison known as the Bangkok Hilton.


From the backpacker district, to the islands of Greece, and the Guinness-soaked streets of Dublin’s party zone, this is a tale of great fortune and extremely bad luck.
