Spiral is one man's story of the true cost of greenbacks stolen, the interest accrued and his path to redemption. Born to poor and alcoholic parents, Spiral follows the twists and turns of Troy Bridges' life from a South Carolina childhood to a sentence of life without parole. In his many bank heists, Troy never used violence or carried a weapon. Instead he would dress in a suit purchased from a local thrift store and hand the bank teller a note asking for money. Fleeing the bank he would quickly discard the suit and fade into a life of leisure for a few weeks or months until the money ran out. If you've ever wondered what it is like to rob a bank and get away with a bag of cash and an exploding dye pack, or live life on the run, or spend years in prison, or escape from prison multiple times, you'll find this book fascinating. If you've ever wondered how you could turn your life around, this is Troy's compelling story of how, through meditation, an epiphany, and service to others, he found peace in the chaotic brutality of America's prisons
