Three men. One impossible prison. One escape that became an enduring mystery.
In the early hours of June 1962, Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary faced one of the most daring escape attempts in American history.
Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin spent months secretly preparing their escape from the supposedly inescapable prison. Behind the walls of their cells, they created a hidden route, fashioned lifelike dummy heads, and built an improvised raft from raincoats.
Then, under the cover of darkness, they disappeared.
Their cells were discovered empty the following morning. The prison launched an enormous search across San Francisco Bay, but the ultimate fate of the three escapees remained uncertain.
Did they drown in the freezing waters? Did they reach the mainland? Or did they successfully disappear into a new life?
Alcatraz: The Great Escape — 1962 brings readers into the tense world of the famous escape, exploring the planning, danger, fear, deception, and uncertainty surrounding that extraordinary night.
Blending historical events with atmospheric fictional storytelling, this novel offers a gripping journey through the walls of Alcatraz, across the dark waters of San Francisco Bay, and into the mystery that still surrounds the escape.
A compelling historical-fiction mystery for readers fascinated by Alcatraz, prison escapes, American history, true crime, and unsolved mysteries.
