The Chair is about a man on death row...an innocent man. Victim to cruel and abusive guards and a sadistic warden, Richard Sullivan must do what he can to try and escape his unjust fate.

Sounds like a simple plot, right? Well, don't be surprised when you find out that The Chair is a gripping psychological thriller with unexpected twists and turns and an ending for which you won't be ready.

Richard Sullivan dominates the page and leads us through life in this prison, a horrible place filled with killers and rapists, but as you read, you'll find oout amongst the disappearing prisoners that not all is what it seems.

Simeti and Christiansen's dark, rough art fits perfectly with displaying the dark, rough world of death row.

The Chair is a shocking tale of sadism and hopelessness...and you won't be able to turn away.
