Rating: 5 out of 5

This was an ARC from NetGalley.A private detective with a mild case of shapeshifting, doing time for a client who can't be bothered, in a maximum security prison, tucked away in a pocket universe, populated by aliens and mutants, watched over by robot guards and haunted by trans-dimensional specters....and the convicts are exploding at random. Thomas takes noir on a wild ride through a science fiction landscape, with horror riding shotgun in this breathtaking, thought provoking novella that will leave you wanting more.An excellent introduction to the wondrous imagination of Jeffrey Thomas.Highly recommended!
