Welcome to Litsy!

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 Tower�s building manager brutally dismembered, his investigator�s instincts won�t allow him to ignore the vicious crime. What Eugene finds beyond the comfort of his apartment�s walls will turn his sheltered existence upside down. To unravel the Tower�s 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.
