Need some help with Table of Contents error

jimdays · 05-18-2016, 05:01 PM

My friend wrote a book which I think is unique. He was a high level drug dealer and then got caught and went to prison for 4 years. He wrote a print book detailing all this. He was quite drunk/high when he wrote the book, and I spent about 20 hours correcting problems with spelling/grammar/punctuation.
He wants me to put the book on Amazon Kindle for $3.49.
The problem is the Table of Contents (toc) is a little screwed up. There are 20 chapters in the book, and some chapters don't show up in the toc (using e-ink Kindle and also Android device) and also some chapter entries in the toc when touched, go to the wrong chapter.
I was wondering if someone would take a look and possibly make some corrections to the toc. This last book is going to be put on Amazon as sort of a closure to his turbulent efforts. He wrote two other books which are already on Amazon.
The epub for this book is here:

You have more than ToC problems. You have bad page breaks and bad formatting. All of these things need to be fixed. Use the Calibre eBook editor to fix this.
