Michaella McCollum

Michaella McCollum is a Northern Irish author who gained international notoriety in 2013 when she and a friend were arrested at Lima airport attempting to smuggle cocaine out of Peru, becoming known as one of the Peru Two. Her memoir, High, recounts her arrest, imprisonment in one of South America's most dangerous prisons, and her eventual release and return to Northern Ireland. The book offers a candid, unflinching account of how a young woman's naivety led to a devastating mistake and the brutal reality of incarceration far from home. McCollum's audiobook gives listeners a raw, first-person account of an extraordinary and cautionary true story.
