“By all rights, both heavenly and earthly, I am the avenger of blood, and on this night, I claim that right!”
Behind the imposing walls of Thornton State Prison, Warden Black’s reign is absolute. Revered for his innovative methods and feared for his iron grip, Black’s prison is a model of reform—or so it seems. But beneath the polished surface lies a web of secrets and a hidden power, known only as The Book.
When Cipher is sent on a covert mission to investigate the prison's enigmatic new physician, Dr. James Johnson, he is instructed to remain invisible. As he watches from the shadows, the pieces begin to fall into place, revealing a dangerous game at play.
With a mysterious past and quest for vengeance, Dr. Johnson morphs from healer to executioner. In a world where alliances shift and betrayals lurk, he must risk everything and choose: will he serve the Warden or The Book?
As dark secrets unravel, loyalties will be tested, blood will be shed, and the ultimate battle for control will determine who truly holds the reins—both inside and out of Thorton State Prison.

A. "Mississippi" Alexander grew up on a farm in the segregated South, raised by his grandparents. At the young age of four, he dreamed of becoming a doctor. When he shared his aspirations, his grandfather asked, "And then what happens?" This question sparked Mississippi's gift for storytelling, with his grandfather as his biggest supporter."Mississippi" graduated from Northwestern University with multiple engineering degrees and later earned a medical doctorate from the University of Illinois at Chicago, and several board-certification specialties. His college friends gave him the nickname as he was the only black student from Mississippi in his freshman class. His unique "country" accent and style made him stand out, and the name stuck.The COVID-19 pandemic shutdowns reignited "Mississippi's" passion for storytelling, allowing him to incorporate his professional experience and hobbies, such as flying, golf, chess, and basketball, into his tales. If you come across him at the 19th hole, don't hesitate to ask him, "...and then what happened?"
Lisa Dobry lives in the NW suburbs of Chicago, but her heart will always remain in Paris, France, where she was a college student and busker for a two-man show strumming and howling the Blues.
