Product Description
Jack Marconi is known as "the Keeper." But in this powerful debut novel, a literary thriller that lays bare the notions of trust and hope, Jack is going to find that everything he's been holding on to can be swept away in the matter of a moment.
It's been a year since Jack's wife was killed in a bizarre, unresolved auto accident. Ever since, he's been slipping up in his job as the warden of Green Haven, a concrete prison in upstate New York, and it makes him the perfect patsy when an infamous cop-killer escapes with the help of someone on the inside. Throwing himself into the hunt for the fleeing convict, Jack doesn't see what's coming.
Suddenly, he's through the looking glass, and in the next twenty-four hours, Jack will defy direct orders, tamper with evidence, kidnap the con's girlfriend, and run from the law with a .45 hidden beneath his sports coat. Because Jack Marconi, keeper of laws, men, secrets, and memories, has been set up by a conspiracy that has turned everyone he ever trusted into an enemy. And everything he ever believed in into the worst kind of lie.
With tough, lurid prose, Vincent Zandri has crafted a haunting, broodingly paranoid thriller that moves relentlessly to its final, unforgettable twist.
