Life Sentences
By Tekla Miller
Medallion Press, 2005
 

RIVETING!  Ms Miller introduces the reader to the men who take women's lives and the men who kill their souls. Celeste Brookstone has the ideal life on the surface. When her daughter takes a job with the Michigan prison system, she fears for Pilar's safety. But she's glad Pilar's away from the hell on earth Marcus Brookstone has created within his own home. Pilar Brookstone is an idealist. She thinks she can change things, make inmates' lives a little better. And never, ever make the mistake her mother made. Chad Wilbanks is a serial killer.  He is serving life. Eight young women were his victims. Is he about to take his ninth? 

Life Sentences is a work of fiction about love, loss, betrayal and murder.  It is inspired by Ms Miller's experiences while employed by the Michigan Department of Corrections, the last six years as a warden for both a women's multi-level and a men's maximum security prisons.  Life Sentences is not only a peek inside a prison, but it is an examination of a little known aspect about which the public appears curious. 

Life Sentences is a thrilling, complex, exciting story that will capture your attention from the start.  Life Sentences will take you down a road never traveled before, and introduce you to the world of criminals and prisons.
