Abstract
|
:
|
Soured by a bullied childhood and a dominant wife, Geoff Thompson threw himself into the violent world of nightclub bouncing in a bid to challenge his fears. This is an account of life on the front line of some of the world's roughest clubs and of mental and physical triumph over adversity.
