Like a Thief’s Dream

The amazing story of the bank robber and convicted murderer Jimmy Ray Renton and his escape from the Arksansas State Prison.

Non-fiction. 190 pages with sixteen pages of photographs.

“I do not know of a book that cuts into and reveals the prison system and the subtle strange fates and characters of the guys. Not Mailer or Capote. Like your pictures you have a way of just letting the reality do the talking eloquently.“
- Peter di Lissovoy
