Det er en autentisk og rå fortælling, der tager læseren med ind i Danmarks lukkede fængsler, bagom den organiserede bandekriminalitet og et korrumperet og følelsesforladt menneske - og ud igen på den anden side. Lad det være sagt med det samme, En Forfærdelig Mand – fra Rocker til Bedemand er ikke endnu en rocker-bog, snarere et underholdende kriminalpolitisk hold kæft og tænk-bolsje.
