In the spirit of Midnight Express and Not Without My Daughter comes the harrowing true story of an American held in a Nicaraguan prison for a murder he didn’t commit. Eric Volz was in his late twenties in 2005 when he moved from California to Nicaragua. He and a friend cofounded a bilingual magazine, El Puente, and it proved more successful than they ever expected. Though the relationship ended amicably less than a year later and Volz moved his business to the capital city of Managua, a close bond between the two endured.Nothing prepared him for the phone call he received on November 21, 2006, when he learned that Doris had been f
All rights reserved. After a bold campaign by his family and friends to put pressure on his captors, Volz was released and deported in December 2007.

Well-written but Self-Serving Account R. Batchelder "Gringo Nightmare" is Eric Volz's compelling first-hand account of his high-profile arrest, conviction and imprisonment in Nicaragua for his alleged role in the 2006 murder of ex-girlfriend Doris Jimenez. The book is slick, nicely packaged, and a few first-edition typos notwithstanding, surprisingly readable. Mr. Volz is clearly a talented writer and this is without question a compelling story.

Lola said engaging book!. This book is so interesting and engaging. I was hooked instantly! I am horrified and fascinated at the same time. This is a must read!!! I have such compassion for those who are innocent in a horrific prison system.. Gringo Nightmare Sunshine-Shoulder I purchased this book because I saw his nightmare unfold on TV. It was Horrible what he went through. At the end it said he wrote a book and I had to get into this further. To see how unfair & cruel prisons, police and government can be. What this young man went through was very horrific. His will to live and be free was very strong. The government and police very crooked. I know this is not over for this young man, nor for any other person arrested especially outside the USA This young man needs our prayers.
