"I am going to die. Soon. Don't ask me how I know this. I just know. Before it's too late, I want to tell you my story. But if I do, you'll die, too. Just like all the others."

These words are taken from the letter that began the case file you're about to read. Though parts of what I'm about to relate have been told before, mainly through newspaper reports of her trial, the story of convicted murderer Eliza Baynes has never been told in its entirety until now.

Before you read any further, I must give you this warning: Proceed with extreme caution. Everyone who's heard Eliza Baynes tell her story is dead. For this reason, if you choose to discuss or refer to the material contained here, I strongly urge you to do so in writing only. And even that may not fully guarantee your safety. How did I survive? I almost didn't. Read on in a case I call THE PRISONER. The reasons for the title of this case will soon become obvious.
