Escape Clause
James O. Born
First Time in Paperback
FDLE agent Bill Tasker's boss is worried about the stress
Tasker's been under, but he has a solution. The governor
wants somebody from the outside to take a look into an
inmate homicide at Manatee Correctional Prison, and the
boss figures he can do the state a favor and give Tasker a
break at the same time. Some break. Turns out there's a
whole lot going on at Manatee. The prison captain likes to
enforce discipline by fairly unorthodox methods. The psych
ward has been known to misplace a mental patient
occasionally. A trustee named Luther has far more on his
mind than working in the prison library-though the rods
holding up the shelves do make very nice shivs. The prison
inspector is carrying a number of very uninspector-like
secrets. And something very bad is about to happen to
Tasker's next-door neighbor. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea, after all.
