    About this ebook

    A man awakens in a jail cell with no memory of how he got there. Accused of heinous crimes, he clings to claims of innocence even as his eccentric court-appointed robot lawyer pushes for a permanent "protective custody." But when offered a supposed chance at escape, will he find the courage to walk out or accept a lifelong fate behind bars?

      Around me are fifty or so men, in whose company I will sit and be silent for ten days. I eye them discreetly, wondering who among them is going through a crisis. Who, like me, has a family. Who’s single, who’s been dumped, who’s poor or unhappy. Who’
