About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Shaun Pinner was a retired and decorated British soldier, living a peaceful and happy life in Mariupol with his Ukrainian family.
What follows is the true story of his six months spent imprisoned in Russian-occupied Ukraine.
After the horrors of frontline fighting, Shaun had to survive his capture by the Russian soldiers, and his removal to a Black Site - an off-the-grid prison untethered to human rights conventions - where he was subjected to a campaign of torture by Putin's secret police.
It saw him shocked with electricity, stabbed, beaten, and almost starved to death, all while trying to maintain his morale with the other POWs.
Shaun tells a story that is both an unstoppable record of the fierceness of the fighting and a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit.

Well done mate.
I wasn't aware you had written a book until I heard you on Ukraine the latest and I downloaded this book after listening to you. I don't know how you can talk so calmly of situations so wrong, you are obviously a special human being even though you may not think so. A long and happy life to you and yours Shaun and Larissa. Slava Ukraini !

Amazing narrative by a survivor of russian brutality
Shaun narrates his story in detail, from the love of his life, delight of the simple things - shashliks on the beach and then a decent into the brutality of his oppressors as he is taken into captivity by russian forces and their proxies and slowly tortured and starved until a miraculous rescue at the eleventh hour thanks to an unexpected prisoner exchange.
Unfortunately this escape is a rare luxury and many thousands of innocent Ukrainians remain in russian captivity: defenders of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, innocent civilians and anybody deemed by russian occupiers to not align with their worldview or desire to join their genocidal regime.
