Alexander Price explores the conflicted mind of a celebrity athlete in this emotionally gripping, biographical fiction. From behind the walls of a maximum-security prison, Inmate number: W106228 reflects on the choices he's made, the people he loves, and the life he once had.
In his early twenties he joined the NFL and quickly became a national celebrity. He had a million-dollar contract and a beautiful fiance. Yet, behind all his fame and fortune the reality of a criminal life was ever-present, slowly eroding every hope and dream his late father had instilled in him.
With both feet planted firmly in two different worlds, he's forced to reconcile a nightmarish past while coming to terms with his disintegrating future. There's only one person who has ever really known him. A true love kept hidden from the world.
The compelling narrative of Broken Bird navigates a distorted purview. A seemingly normal life is brought to chaos by the weight of personal trauma and dangerous secrets. How will the ripple effect of this descent be felt? And how deeply will it cut?
