Description

Can you be free if you can't go outside

The year is 2024, and the residents of the Tower, a virus-proof apartment building, live in a state of permanent lockdown. The building is controlled by James, who keeps the residents safe but incarcerated. Behind bricked-up front doors, their every need is serviced; they are pampered but remain prisoners. This suits Eugene just fine. Ravaged by the traumas of his past, the agoraphobic ex-detective has no intention of ever setting foot outside again. But when he finds the Towers building manager brutally dismembered, his investigators instincts wont allow him to ignore the vicious crime. What Eugene finds beyond the comfort of his apartments walls will turn his sheltered existence upside down. To unravel the Towers mysteries, he must confront James... and James takes his role as the Warden very, very seriously.

Jon Richter is also the critically-acclaimed author of the psychological thrillers Rabbit Hole and Never Rest. The Warden is a mind-blowing crime thriller perfect for our times and a book that will appeal to fans of Black Mirror.
