Iron Heights is the toughest penitentiary in Central CityÑtough enough to hold rogues like Captain Cold and Mirror Master. But lately itÕs been a prison of sorts for Barry Allen as well, ever since Barry was pulled off his job as a CSI and sent to the facility to work in crime scene preservation. From his new post, the Fastest Man Alive witnesses for the first time what life is like for criminals after their arrest. And thanks to Iron HeightsÕ tough-as-nails Warden Wolfe, it isnÕt pretty. But now life in prison has turned into a death sentence for one inmate, and since BarryÕs no longer working at the crime lab, he isnÕt able to help the murder investigation. As the Flash, however, heÕs determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, even if it runs him headlong into a trap.
