'Outside the Prison' Summary
In the desolate world of a dystopian future, "Outside the Prison" follows the harrowing journey of John Everett, a former lawman turned enforcer for the ruthless warlord known as "The Baron." Haunted by remorse for the blood he's shed and the lives he's destroyed, John's conscience gnaws at him as he navigates a crumbling world reduced to chaos and lawlessness.
