In 2014, an advert was posted on Craiglist: 'Extraordinary True Stories Wanted - do you have a true, untold story you'd like to share?' The response it received was short... but beyond anything imaginable.



Part enthralling investigative journalism, part creative re-telling, Incarcerated is a commanding account of the shocking case of James Davis.

A young man with a troubled past, James was imprisoned for 8 years, seemingly for nothing more than a contested cab fare. Living alongside the criminally and psychologically disturbed in the 300-acre fortress of a Mental Health Institute, James was subject to several invasive examinations and elaborate diagnoses, leaving him to question the soundness of his own mind.

It wasn't until he witnessed first-hand others die within the confines of the Institute that he knew what he had to do: escape - and escape quickly.

A lengthy lawsuit soon followed, which saw James and his fellow inmates fight in an attempt to secure their freedom and unveil the true practices of the Institute once and for all.

A searing account of James's extraordinary story, Incarcerated is an investigation into the unnerving nuances at play within the justice system, and an exploration into the disconcertingly indistinct boundaries between sanity and insanity.
