Synopsis:
How can you fight to the death, when you’ve given up
on life?
A thought provoking and compelling dystopian world
that will change the way you view justice...
A man fights for life—and redemption—in D. M. Cain’s
riveting re-released novel, The Phoenix
Project.
Britain has descended into chaos as violence and
terrorist attacks seethe across this once-peaceful country. Outraged by the
steady stream of lawlessness, citizens demand a harsher penal system, and the
Phoenix Project is born.
In prisons across the country, inmates fight to the
death in a weekly bloodbath while the nation cheers them on.
Raven Kennedy, a prisoner who has never forgiven
himself for his unspeakable crime, struggles against his own guilt and
self-loathing. But even as the real war wages on within himself, Raven is
forced to battle some of the prison’s most ruthless killing machines. Can he
survive long enough to unravel the anger and regret that shackle him—and one
day find the forgiveness he seeks?
‘The Phoenix Project by D.M.
Cain is a superbly written debut, soaked in tension and intrigue,’ Jack
Croxall, author of the ‘Tethers’ trilogy.
An interesting fact about The Phoenix Project: The horrifying ‘dark room’ in The Phoenix Project (a
pitch-black sensory deprivation cell) was inspired by D.M. Cain’s visit to the
Terror Haza in Budapest—a museum dedicated to the fascistic and communistic
regimes that operated from the building. In the cellar of the Terror Haza are
the old cells used to imprison and torture inmates. D.M. crawled inside a very
low cell and shut the door, casting herself into total darkness. It was
terrifying and claustrophobic, and she only lasted five minutes in there!
