Looks like there’s a whole other niche market out there for the book

Who knew that a mega-bestseller could have so many uses? Certainly not Australian customs:

Pages inside the book had been cut out to hide 12 vials of performance-enhancing anabolic steroids, Ellison said.

A Sydney man faces two charges of importing prohibited substances and one charge of possessing prohibited imports.

Now we have to wonder just how inflated the sales figures really are…
