Description: It was the holiday from hell. Arriving in Spain with friends for a golfing trip, John Packwood was arrested at the airport. Knowing he had done nothing wrong, he sat in a holding cell for days waiting to hear the charge so he could sort it out and go home to his girlfriend, Jane Amestoy. Eventually, he discovered that a boat he had helped deliver to Morocco seven years before had later been caught in a drugs bust - there had been a warrant out for his arrest ever since. With the Spanish authorities planning to extradite him to Morocco, John suddenly found himself fighting for survival in a world of international politics, corruption and violence. Despite twelve months' tireless hard work Jane was unable to stop the extradition, and as John reached Morocco they both feared the worst ...An extraordinary tale of horror and endurance, "Extradited" is also a remarkable love story and a gripping adventure.
