In January of 1965, twenty-four-year-old U.S. Army sergeant Charles
Robert Jenkins abandoned his post in South Korea, walked across the
DMZ, and surrendered to communist North Korean soldiers standing
sentry along the world's most heavily militarized border. He
believed his action would get him back to the States and a short
jail sentence. Instead he found himself in another sort of prison,
where for forty years he suffered under one of the most brutal and
repressive regimes the world has known. This fast-paced, harrowing
tale, told plainly and simply by Jenkins (with journalist Jim
Frederick), takes the reader behind the North Korean curtain and
reveals the inner workings of its isolated society while offering a
powerful testament to the human spirit.
