The JailerEspañol
The man in the hat: top hat, glowing green goggles and a face in shadow

A NOVEL BY BLOHER

Every face,
a form of confinement.

The Jailer is a novel about the prison nobody sees from inside. Around it grew comics, films and a city you can walk.

Sophia begins with a question. Eli finds a signal. Thomas follows a trail. On the other side, someone keeps the production running.
