Discover the story of a man whose triple life sentence leads him to ultimate freedom as Xlibris brings to readers Life After 187.
Sentenced to life in prison when he executes the men who murdered his wife, Kane Silver is singled out by the warden for his fighting ability.

But when the three friends escape during a New Year's Eve match in Lake Tahoe-saving the warden's life in the process-their situation becomes more complicated.
