A short story from the Shamus, Ellery Queen's Readers Choice and Derringer award-winning author. Do you think you’ll be able to guess the shocking ending of MIND PRISON? In this mind-bending mix of science fiction and noir, a renowned scientist, Dr. Graham Winston, is developing an ingenious and, some might say, horrifying technology that will revolutionize prison. He’s close to a breakthrough, except that he finds himself distracted by his beautiful mistress… and thoughts of murder. “MIND PRISON is a dandy tale of hubris and horror that both Philip K. Dick and O. Henry would heartily endorse.” Lee Goldberg “MIND PRISON is a mix of science fiction and noir as diverting as it is surprising.” Max Allan Collins “A taut, dark, searing science fiction story filled with noir atmospherics--greed, sexual betrayal, murder--that evokes the best of Philip K. Dick's grim near future.” Ed Gorman, “MIND PRISON features a novel and Orwellian solution to the problem of overcrowding in American prisons.” Publishers Weekly
