Product Description
Nightmare In Bangkok is a nonfiction account of an intuitive criminal who dreamt his fate. Born and raised in Hawaii, Andy began his criminal lifestyle as a professional thief. This led to a headline heist in 1977, and his introduction to heroin smuggling and addiction. After over a decade of close calls, escapes, crime sprees and Hawaiian prisons, Andy was arrested for drug-trafficking in Bangkok, Thailand. The penalty was execution by gunshot to the head.
The names, nicknames and characters are real, and everything is factual - verifiable by court documents, government files, newspaper articles, witnesses and photos. This isn’t a how-to book, nor is it intended to glamorize crime and drug abuse. The author’s objective is to share what he’s learned about life through his unusual experiences, and give insight into the cycle of crime and drug addiction.

A story for people of all ages and backgrounds. Very visual and intense! Page turning from beginning to end, hilarious and insane throughout, culminating with a happy ending.

Many of us possess the gift of visions.
Unfortunately we often do not act on them even when the message is crystal clear. Sometimes our survival depends completely on the correct action at an exact moment in time. Andy has shown us how important it is to trust these visions.
Going with that intuitive flow can guide us toward that transcendental moment where self understanding and love becomes possible. For Andy this not a one time event. Over and over in his life he has seen and made the instant corrections necessary. We can learn from his experience and his suffering from those unfortunate moments when his decisions were made within a drug clouded mind. Andy has had many who care about him help him survive the hell of drug addiction. He remains a reminder that no matter how far gone the soul of the addict can be worth saving!
This first edition contains a few editing errors but it is written with an intimate train of thought technique that keeps the reader engaged.
