{"product_id":"9781459807488","title":"The Innocence Device","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe year is 2147. Chago, twenty-four, is a prisoner in a world made up only of prisoners and those who guard them. The only bright spot in Chago’s life is his son, Jim-Jim, whose mother is a guard. In an effort to resolve overcrowding in the prison, the warden introduces the Innocence Device, a high-tech machine he claims can determine innocence or guilt. Prisoners are encouraged to walk through the Innocence Device and experience its rewards: immediate freedom or death. When they discover the machine is rigged, the prisoners riot and take over the prison. After witnessing the execution-style death of the mother of his son, and surviving a brief stint outside the prison walls, Chago ends up in a position of power. But he soon finds the new regime little different from the old, and he sets out to save the only thing he values—his son.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"William Kowalski (CA)","offers":[{"title":"Orca Book Publishers |  Paperback \/ softback | Trade paperback (US) |  2014-09-01","offer_id":44151342432511,"sku":"9781459807488","price":9.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/files\/BNCImageAPI_ca2f8ac6-8f07-429e-835f-f3bdeefed740.jpg?v=1701321794","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9781459807488","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
