About this listen

 Detective Emily "Em" Carter takes listeners on an immersive journey into the harsh reality of America's most notorious federal penitentiary. This compelling exploration of Alcatraz reveals the rigid daily routines, infamous inmates like Al Capone and the Birdman, and the severe discipline system that defined life on "The Rock." Through her unique perspective as a rookie detective with criminology expertise, Em brings to life the psychological impact of imprisonment on this isolated island where freedom was visible but unreachable across San Francisco Bay.
