A Deadly Secret. Lock's search for the truth takes him from the rooftops of a New York skyscraper to a heavily fortified warehouse on the Hudson where he confronts one of the world's most dangerous women.

DEADLOCKOne Prisoner
One Bodyguard
One Week To Stay Alive
The California State Prison at Pelican Bay houses three and a half thousand of America's most dangerous prisoners. Three thousand, four hundred and ninety nine of them want the remaining inmate dead. Your job is to keep him alive until he testifies...
Elite bodyguard Ryan Lock and his trusted friend, Ty Johnson, have just become convicted felons, sentenced to twenty years in Pelican Bay, California's notorious supermax prison. Or at least that's what the FBI and the United States Justice Department want everyone to believe.
Their mission should be straightforward: to keep one man alive for one week. But the inmate, Frank 'Reaper' Hays, is a founding member of the white supremacist Aryan Brotherhood prison gang, who's about to give evidence against members of his own gang for the brutal slaying of an undercover ATF agent and his family. And just to make an already trying job next to impossible, Hays point blank refuses to go into protective custody. In a world dominated by violent gangs where alliances are constantly shifting and no one can be trusted, Lock knows that he faces the toughest assignment of his career—just to stay alive...
