More about the book

In a remote corner of East Texas lies the Green River State Penitentiary, a grim place housing 2,800 convicts amid a labyrinth of granite, glass, and steel. Dr. Ray Klein has spent three years working in the AIDS-infested prison infirmary, adopting a survival mantra: not my fucking business. Meanwhile, forensic psychologist Juliette Devlin conducts research to understand the hearts of men. Beneath the prison, the giant Henry Abbott awaits divine instruction. On the day Klein wins his parole, the prison erupts into a brutal riot, the first time in 147 years that inmates seize control. Trapped in the infirmary are the dying men Klein cares for and Devlin, the woman he loves. As the most dangerous inmates besiege the infirmary, Klein faces a critical choice: pursue his long-desired freedom or risk everything to save those he loves. Dark, violent, and compelling, this story is a sophisticated thriller that explores themes of good and evil, duty, and the redemptive power of love.
