Breaking Freedom tells the story of a computer programmer who is arrested and sent to a privately owned prison that is run for profit. Max Carter finds that the prison is nothing he expected... it is run more like a business than a correctional facility. Another startling realization is that the prison's stratospherically wealthy owner has grandiose ideas for creating a fully controlled society, and that idealistic but unrealistic dream is based on a continual increase of laws.
Book blurbs:
Breaking Freedom is fantasy mixed with mystery, an engaging tale of corruption and good men fighting against seemingly insurmountable odds. The characters are realistic, and the theme of skewed morals at the highest levels is unnerving. – Pinkie Paranya, Award Winning author of Women of the Northland Trilogy
This is an unsettling reminder that extreme wealth, power, and righteousness are a dangerous blend, and that laws don't always flow in every direction. – Laurie Stapleton, PhD
