![]() Worth millions and brutally powerful, X terrorizes prison staff and powerful outsiders into doing his bidding. Family drama morphs into horror story when a convict among a busload of inmates from a state prison farm spots Jason and informs Prisoner X (so named because his real name is Axel, or possibly because he killed 10 men). ![]() Gibby’s coming-of-age tale might have focused the story, but it vies with a long lineup of characters, events, and themes trailing through the plot. Gibby looks up to Jason, eventually believing his dishonorable discharge was undeserved. Family patriarch William and his wife, Gabrielle (a woefully undeveloped character), determine to keep Jason away from his impressionable younger brother, Gibby, a high school senior. His twin brother, Robert, was killed in Vietnam. Now freed, his presence roils a wounded family. After a dishonorable discharge from the Marines, Jason spiraled into drug abuse and landed in prison. ![]() Jason French has just returned to Charleston, South Carolina. A dishonorably discharged Marine returns home, throwing his family into chaos.Ī family melodrama at first appears to be the center of Hart’s latest, a diffuse tale that lacks the drive of his other works. ![]()
