Thanks Sue. Actually, Walt was in part inspired by Inga who made the prison a person. I wanted someone on the inside to acknowledged that. I had Walt all worked out immediately after reading yours, though. I wanted him to fit nicely into your infirmary setting, while revealing bits of new intrigue and adding a bit of variety of characters.
I love this one! Visceral and immersive. There is an interesting dichotomy here, on one hand, this character is a sympathetic old man. On the other, he has committed heinous crimes. I like how rich his inner world is, and the glance at the guard/doctor dynamics.
Yeah. I wanted to go beyond just inmates and introduce some diversity for someone else to run with: guards, medical personnel and the whitecoats from the basement 😶🌫️ Brendan might've not made it to that last transport after all...

What a chilling story! I loved reading it. That old man ... I agree with Inga, I want him to survive but also - he is in there for a reason, too.
And the inclusion of some staff gave it another dimension, too. Thank you for writing this. I really, really enjoyed it!
