What would the U.S. government do if they actually caught the Devil? Where would they keep him? What would they do with him? If they used him, what would the cost be?
In an abandoned nuclear submarine buried beneath the Greenland ice shelf, the National Security Agency's new Information Assurance Technical Director, Ray Peterson, is revealed the greatest secret the U.S. government has ever kept. Daniel Edgar Vincent Ivan Liberty, codenamed Devil, has an intellect so vast, there is no puzzle he can't solve, no computer system too complex to create or control, and the thing he enjoys most is manipulating the fleeting lives of human beings.
Devil surrendered to the U.S. government of his own free will, only requesting that he be kept alive in a prison of his design near the Arctic Circle in exchange for his gifts to be utilized exclusively for America....and for a terrible price that Ray will soon horrifyingly discover!

About the Author
Thaxson Patterson II is an African American writer currently living in Denver, Colorado. He graduated from the University of Denver in 2003 with a degree in Electronic Media Art Design, worked as an art designer for his sister's jewelry design company and a local nonprofit organization. His lifelong reading, collecting, and obsession with a variety of literary genres including Lovecraftian horror, Dean Koontz mysteries, Stephen King supernatural tales, and the heroic myths from antiquity fueled his passion for writing.
His science fiction short story "Life Under Research Conditions" was published in the anthology The Toll of Another Bell by Xchyler Publishing in 2015. "The Gunslinger with No Hands", a supernatural ghost tale, was published in August 2015 in Bardic Tales and Sage Advice Volume VII by Bards and Sages Publishing. DEVIL'S MAINTENENCE is his first work published by Black Bed Sheet Books, and look forward to more from this sensational author!
