Description
The extraordinary true story behind New Zealand's most infamous career criminal and prolific escapee.
Arthur Taylor is New Zealand's best known, most influential and colourful career criminal. A household name, he was paroled from prison in 2019 after more than 38 years behind bars.
His life story is nothing short of remarkable. He has more than 150 convictions ranging from bank robberies to fraud, theft, escaping and having weapons and explosives.
He has served in New Zealand's most notorious high-security prison, Auckland Prison at Paremoremo, including eight months in solitary confinement. But Arthur isn't what most people might expect.
During his time in prison, Arthur masterminded two particularly audacious prison escapes including a weeks-long caper where he and three others holed up at a millionaire's mansion.
He has shared cells with some of the country's most feared killers (listeners will come across high-profile inmates such as William Bell, Liam Reid, Scott Watson, Leslie Maurice Green and Graeme Burton) and is responsible for one of the country's most bizarre behind-bars weddings. His stories of prison life are entertaining, gripping, sometimes horrifying.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"The good, the very bad, and the unbelievable - Arthur Taylor's life has had it all." (Mike White, author of Who Killed Scott Guy?)
"A law professor told me he thought Arthur Taylor is one of New Zealand's great legal minds. It just so happens he's a great storyteller, too." (Jarrod Gilbert, author of Patched: The History of Gangs in New Zealand)
