A real page turner

Ben Greer has done an excellent job of capturing the essense of the old Central Corrections Institute through his experience as a guard there. The book is well written and is a must read for all who enjoy a good story.

I couldn't put it down

If you like books in the prison genre, you must read this one. Greer captures the society of prison and makes it real to the reader. I could not put this book down....I was spellbound. I'd place Slammer in the category of Shawshank Redemption.
