Insanity

Insanity: A Tale of Resilience and Redemption

By Patrick Sugden

A 130-mile-an-hour high-speed crash. A trail of diamonds. A man who refused to slow down.

Patrick Sugden was a small-town boy with a wild streak and a prayer in his pocket. The Marines made him tougher-but not wiser. What followed was a descent into the fast, glittering chaos of America's criminal underworld: stolen identities, multimillion-dollar jewelry heists, drugs, women, and a life that ran hotter and faster with every job.

Until one night, the bullets started flying-and the walls came crashing down.

Told with grit, dark humor, and unflinching honesty, Insanity is the explosive true story of a man addicted to risk, danger, and his own destruction-and the long, improbable road toward redemption.

Book Highlights:

• • A true-crime saga that moves like a heist film-fast, dangerous, and unforgettable
  • Inside look at the criminal networks of the 1980s and '90s across the American South
  • A first-person confession of addiction, adrenaline, and the lure of easy money
  • Real-life near-death escapes, undercover deals, and moral reckoning
  • A raw and redemptive journey that proves even the most reckless lives can change direction

Fans of Catch Me If You Can, Blow, and Scarface will be riveted by this brutally honest account of a man who lost everything chasing the rush-and found something greater on the other side.
