The cool iron walls surrounding the island was stiffening my muscles. I had been here for two hours and I was already feeling homesick. Every time the tides hit one of the walls, the entire building would vibrate, which didn’t receive my vote of confidence. “Why is this facility still open? I thought it was closed and wasn’t allowed to be used for anything other than tourism,” I asked the head of the operation Alcatrax. “Now, now Ms. Coral. One question at a time please.
