Product Description

It was meant to be a two-week vacation to celebrate her sister’s birthday, but for Schapelle Corby it ended up a waking nightmare. Arrested at Denpasar airport after marijuana was found in her luggage, she became the victim of every traveler’s darkest fear. More than four kilograms of drugs had been planted in her bag after she’d checked it in, and she was forced to face the consequences of someone else's crime in a country where the penalties for drug smuggling are among the harshest in the world. Her trial and conviction became one of the biggest news stories of the decade and her family watched in horror as she was sentenced to 20 years in jail. Yet despite the huge media coverage, the one voice the public never properly heard was Schapelle’s. Now, in this compelling book, she tells her own story: of being wrenched from a carefree holiday and incarcerated in a stinking police cell and of learning to survive—in the squalor, discomfort, and violence of an Indonesian jail.

My Soul Hurts for Her5
I've been following Schapelle's case since she was first arrested, but it took me a long time before I was brave enough to read her story in her own words. It took me a while to get through the book, just because I could only handle one chapter at a time.

The story is about Schapelle's journey as her life transforms from that of a 27 year old beauty school student to a prisoner in Indonesia's notorious Kerobokan prison. Your frustration grows as all the things that would normally amount to more than enough reasonable doubt for acquittal in the western world are either ignored or not permitted by the Indonesian judges. To make matters even worse, the Australian media is determined to dig up whatever dirt they can find on the working-class Corby family.

About the only thing that everyone agrees on is that a 10lb bag of marijuana was found in Schapelle's boogie board bag. How she could have possibly gotten an unlocked back with that many drugs through two major Australian aiports or where the drugs came from in the first place have never been answered. Sadly, Schapelle and her family found themselves in a completely foreign world where you are guilty until proven innocent. Schapelle Corby never had a chance.

Powerful, compelling read!5
Beautifully written, powerful story that makes you feel Schapelle Corby's anguish, frustration and helplessness. A must read for anyone who travels internationally. Highly recommend this book. The injustice of her trial and persecution is quite unbelievable in this modern day world where we take democracy for granted. Makes you feel so sad for her and her family and her lost hopes and dreams.

I wish I knew the truth4
I can tell that Schapelle had help to write this book, she is too kind to her family within the pages.
A normal family fights under such enormous stress - but the book never admitted anything like that. I find that hard to believe.

I also have some doubts as to her innocence, she just doesn't 'bargain' enough in the book.

I don't recall reading anything like "I wish I'd never come" "I wish my sister never married an Indonesian" "I wish, I wish..."

Perhaps it's because what she wishes is that she never did it?

I know it might sound too harsh, that I'm being cruel and mean but I just want to know the truth. I hate feeling unsure.

What I do know for sure is the Ron Bakir comes off sounding like a nasty guy, this is something that sounds true in the book - and I believe that he had more to do with Schapelle's fate than anyone.

I also believe Schapelle got a very raw deal from her lawyers - I believe that they were incompetent and nasty.

I also believe that the Indonesians had a chance to find the truth just by simply weighing the bags when she was 'caught' - it is frustrating that they refused to investigate.

I wish that none of this had ever happened. I wish Schapelle was free.

I wish I knew the truth about what happened, but I never will - but I do know that Schapelle doesn't deserve 20 years.

That is outrageous - even if she did do it.
