Synopsis
During the mid-1980s, Marks had 43 aliases and 25 companies, all laundering money from dealing cannabis. After a world-wide operation, he was arrested and sentenced to 25 years at a State Penitentiary in Indiana, but was released in 1995 after serving seven years. This is his own story.

Journal Entry 3 by Researchman from Nairn, Scotland United Kingdom on Tuesday, September 13, 2005

I was taking a wander down by the large carpark at the bottom of Cumming Street, near the beach, in Nairn at about half one in the afternoon on Friday the 9th of September 2005 when I noticed a white paperback sitting on one of the bench seats at the Tourist info display. I had not come across the Bookcrossing.com website and knew nothing of this free bookswapping. I was interested in the idea and took the book home to read and release. I have read the first 30 pages or so and will finish the book of when I get a chance. This is just to let the last reader know the book is safe and sound. The dream lives on! I have now had a chance to read the book and I must say I found it a most interesting read. I could not put the book down once I got into it. Howard Marks comes across as a most likable sort of guy despite his career.

RELEASE NOTES:

I left this book sitting on a bench on Inglis Street,in Inverness, on Wednesday afternoon, about 1:45 pm. I had wandered about the town centre looking for a suitable place and this seemed the most likely spot to drop the book off at. This was my first release so I was quite interested to see how it went.
