BASED ON A SHOCKING TRUE STORY This fast-paced, breathtaking and painfully heartbreaking tale spans four continents and is so intensely shocking you will be left spellbound. The Devils Grip has something special weaving its way through the pages of extraordinary obstacles, the horrors this young boy had to endure and how quickly he lost his innocence and childhood  the intangible thread of hope. A fundamentally good-hearted human being, JR Rothwell, as a young man, had no choice but to enter the world of crime. Existing on a day-by-day basis, Rothwell never once gave up on trying to find his way to conform to what most would regard as an ordinary life. From abusive parents to violent criminal activity, Rothwell takes us from the USA to the Middle East to Sydney, Australia where he becomes a paramount criminal underworld figure all the while experiencing the common thread that those who were closest to him were the ones who betrayed him the most.
