Nightmare Success: Loyalty, Betrayal, Life Behind Bars, Adapting, and Finally Breaking Free: A Memoir by Brent Cassity is classified as a personal success in business type of book.

I am so proud of Brent, the author!!! In this book you will find him reliving very dark days while also relishing in wonderful days growing up in his favorite town, Springfield, MO and raising his family. This book takes the reader on a journey of severe ups and downs.

I found this very difficult to put down once I started. Many of us have created our own personal prisons that confine us in ways very similar to the real thing. Cassity provides strategies for moving through these unthinkable experiences that can really help others to cope and come through stronger. Very well done!

Brent Cassidy spent 5 years in prison after being a successful ceo for decades. This book is part biography
