Synopsis

The conditions at Moundsville State Prison were deplorable. It seems that the guards were just as corrupt as the cons. The gangs ran the jail, and Davie Ingram was the man in charge of the gangs.
But unfortunately for Davie and his crew, they chose the incorrect target to shake down this time. When he sees a video of his brother getting brutally assaulted by a half dozen thugs, he won’t take it well at all. He’s the kind of man you can count on. A man who has made a career out of the art of making other people pay for things. Instead of using money, they used their own blood.
A man with the name of… HOLE.

As a caterpillar goes out of its dark cocoon, grows its wings, and flies high up in the sky, I acknowledge my role in the entire process of the written word's metamorphosis through The Chrysalis BREW Project. I believe that beauty and goodness exist in everything and everyone - may we let that emerge and shine in each word we read, concoct, write, or share.
