Hell in Barbados The true story of a man imprisoned in paradise

By Terry Donaldson · 2015

Hell in Barbados is the powerful true story of a narcotic-addicted smuggler who found his salvation in the unlikeliest of places. Told with disarming honesty, the book propels the reader into the mind of an addict and shows us the depths of degradation one man sunk to before finding the inner strength to save himself.

Terry Donaldson met with success early in life but his struggle with addiction soon became an all-out war. His Jekyll and Hyde lifestyle – TV presenter by day, whilst he scoured the streets of London in search of gear and prostitutes by night – caused him to lose everything.

Facing financial ruin, he agreed to smuggle gear from Barbados, but was caught and sent to one of the world’s worst prisons, where he remained for over 3 years
