So, you f*cked up. Can't talk your way out of it, buy your way out of it, or beg your way out of it.
You are going to prison. You will be living under a set of rules made up by men who have demonstrated to society that they need a big ol' time out. There is no book of these rules. Nobody will tell them to you. But when you break one—boy, will you know it. For the newbie, the fish, the fresh meat—this book is your survival guide. How to mind your business without becoming a target. When to walk away. When to stand your ground.
This is how you don't die. Follow the advice in this book, and you just might make it out alive.
