This book is about a strong man who had careless ideas that
nothing would ever happen to him and his friends. The book is called
Lockdown,
and was written by a great author named Alexander Gordan Smith. Alexander has
written many books of the same type of theme. This book is action packed and
never gets boring. I believe this is one
of the best books I have read and I can’t wait to read the next one in the
series.
The book took me to a place that once I picked it up, I didn’t
want to put it down. It was a Saturday night; about midnight in fact, Alex and
his buddies were planning to steal money, or whatever was in the house. He had
been doing it for years, but this house was the biggest, it was the house that
was owned by people who drove fancy cars. They knew it would be marvelous to
see what they got at the end of the job. Although Alex never said anything he
knew that there was something wrong. The owners were gone, but something else
was up.
His buddies entered the house with no regrets, except for
Alex. As the end of the procedure they saw a shadow in another room. Alex
checked it out, a big man in a black suit stood there, fierce as could be. A
yell downstairs proved to Alex that there were more people in the house and
they were not the owners. The man brought Alex down to the level where his best
friend laid. In one suspicious minute everything went wrong. The man shot
Alex’s friend and then put the gun in Alex’s hand. Alex was convicted as a
murderer, but it is more like an innocent murder.
Alex went to a prison called lockdown. He found 2 other
people who were also blamed for a crime that they did not do, and had been
committed by the same man that had set Alex up. Lockdown was an underground,
prison that no one could escape from. That’s exactly what Alex and his new
friends wanted to do.
I thought this book was great, it had very sad, and happy
parts through out the story. I will suggest this book to multiple people,
because you cannot get a great review from one person. Read the book when you
have time, if I had to rate it I would give it a 9 out of 10.
