Exposing the Secret World of Prison Staff: Guarded Published by Outskirts Press
Outskirts Press announces the latest highly anticipated law enforcement autobiography from Salinas, CA, author Susan S. Jepsen.
Salinas, CA, May 31, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Outskirts Press, Inc. has published Guarded: Surviving as a Female Prison Officer A Memoir by Susan S. Jepsen. The author's most recent book to date is a 6 x 9 paperback in the law enforcement autobiography category and is available worldwide on book retailer websites such as Amazon and Barnes & Noble. The webpage at www.outskirtspress.com/guarded was launched simultaneously with the book's publication.
At twenty-two Susan Jepsen found the strength to walk out on an abusive husband with only twenty dollars in her pocket and their infant son on her side. For the next twenty-seven years, Susan had a successful career in the Department of Corrections and achieved four separate promotions — despite her continuing struggles in this male dominated world of sexual harassment and political retaliation.
Guarded is the true expose of an environment that fosters manipulation and nepotism and where your most dangerous enemy is not the male prisoners you guard, but your fellow staff. In that stress filled world Susan wanted to rely on her fellow officers to watch her back and while that sometimes was possible in the cells and prison corridors with the inmates, it was not always possible in the back offices and casework rooms with her fellow staff. Susan had to learn the hard way to watch her own back against the unwanted sexual advances of her fellow male — and sometimes female — staff.
Guarded gives an intimate, insider’s view of the hidden world of prison staff, a world society does not want to think about, a secret world in which mainstream society is not welcome.
188 pages in length, Guarded: Surviving as a Female Prison Officer A Memoir is being aggressively promoted to appropriate markets with a focus on the law enforcement autobiography category. With U.S. wholesale distribution through Ingram and Baker & Taylor, and pervasive online availability through Amazon, Barnes & Noble and elsewhere, Guarded meets consumer demand through both retail and library markets with a suggested retail price of $10.95.
Additionally, Guarded can be ordered by retailers or wholesalers for the maximum trade discount price set by the author in quantities of ten or more from the Outskirts Press Direct bookstore at www.outskirtspress.com/bookstore.
ISBN: 9781432769314
Format: 6 x 9 paperback cream
SRP: $10.95

About the author:
Susan Jepsen retired after twenty-seven years with the Department of Corrections.
