Resumen del Editor

From the wild and wonderful mind of Shamus Award-winning author John Straley comes a poetic masterpiece that explores the ugly truths of the prison industrial complex, the crumbling state of humanity, the role memory plays in the formation of the self, and much more.

It’s been seven years since Gloomy Knob landed in the Ted Stevens High-Security Federal Penitentiary and five years since the end of the war, the one North Korea started when they sent a missile to Cold Storage, Alaska. Serving a life sentence for the murder of his sister, Gloomy spends his time trying to forget about the past.

Then one day, Gloomy is snatched from his off-site work station. Instead of celebrating his newfound freedom, Gloomy comes unmoored - he feels he belongs in prison. But his kidnappers believe Gloomy knows where a second nuclear warhead is hidden and demand to know where it is. The clock is ticking, and Gloomy knows he needs to find the missing warhead fast, or his wife, his friends, and the entire town of Cold Storage will be obliterated. The only problem is he has no idea where it is.

As Gloomy struggles to escape, the memories he fought hard to repress begin to creep out from the strange corners of his mind, first in rivulets, then in waves. In a drug-induced haze, Gloomy makes a discovery that may just bring him the closure he desires - if it doesn’t kill him first.

Great story, excellent writing

… and a great performance, too.

This John Straley‘s book is like a poem. It took me a while, but suddenly it hit me, maybe an hour ir ao into the reading. The rhythm, the words, the ebb and flow of these peoples lives. Very beautiful.

The lack of a cohesive story. I liked Straley’s previous books. This one just got lost in its own cleverness.

A confused mishmash of disjointed ideas adding up to not much. The strange esoteric tangents that add nothing to the story, only serve to remove the reader from any chance of connection with characters or plot.
