Death Row Breakout: and Other Stories

Death Row Breakout: and Other Stories

Edward Bunker
0/5 ( ratings)
Six stories from the papers of one of America's finest crime authors
Roger doesn't mean for the preacher and his wife to die. Released less than a year earlier from San Quentin, he's trying to make a living the only way he knows how: theft. His latest heist goes perfectly until his car breaks down. Sirens are closing in when an old black preacher stops to give him a lift. The police at the roadblock kill the elderly couple, but in the eyes of the law it's Roger's fault. And he will die in the gas chamber at San Quentin--unless he can break out first. Roger's incredible story anchors this collection of short fiction by Edward Bunker, who knew better than anyone what it means to be a criminal, inside and outside of prison. In these stories, which were unpublished at the time of his death in 2005, he shows again the talent that made him such a remarkable writer.
