Description
The Reformatory is a gripping novel set in Jim Crow Florida, where the horrors of racism and injustice are brought to life in a terrifying tale of survival. In the summer of 1950, Robert Stephen Jones Jr. is sent to a reform school that is as much a prison as it is a place of learning, where the living and the dead coexist in a world of fear and oppression.
As Robert navigates the school's treacherous landscape, he must enlist the help of the school's ghosts, who have their own motivations and agendas. But can he survive the school's governor and his sinister Funhouse, where the boundaries between life and death are blurred? This eerie and frightening novel explores the dark history of America's past, and the enduring legacy of racism and injustice.
