Publisher Description
An explosive, race-against-time thriller and the first in the action-packed series featuring ex-military close protection operators, Ryan Lock and Ty Johnson. From the winner of the 2018 International Thriller Writers award.
A DEADLY MISSION
It may be Christmas Eve in New York, but for ex-military bodyguard Ryan Lock it's business as usual.
His task: to protect the CEO of the world's largest bio-technology company from a group of radical, and highly determined, activists.
A BLOODY SHOOTOUT
But when a failed assassination attempt leaves the streets of midtown littered with bodies, and hours later the son of the company's chief research scientist is abducted from his Upper West Side prep school, Lock's hunt for the boy turns into an explosive game of cat and mouse.
ONLY ONE MAN CAN SAVE NEW YORK
Through the corporate corridors of power and dark alleys of Manhattan, Lock's search leads him towards a deadly confrontation with one of the world's most dangerous women. As the clock ticks towards midnight on New Year's Eve, and the crowds gather in Times Square, Lock realizes that not only is his own life in terrible danger but so are the lives of millions of others...
"An impressive debut featuring one of the finest female villains since Ian Fleming's Rosa Klebb. This is a writer, and a hero, to watch" - The Daily Mail
"Sean Black writes with the pace of Lee Child, and the heart of Harlan Coben. Lockdown is a sure-fire winner" - Joseph Finder, New York Times Bestselling Author of Paranoia
"Supremely slick...An excellent first novel" - The Daily Telegraph
Customer Reviews
Dime a dozen
Every person with conservative values is implicitly racist according to this author. That narrative is not only completely untrue but tiresome. Book was like every other action/mystery written by a community college lit C student.
Lock Down. Sean Black
Ryan Lock is with his good friend and partner Ty. They are hunting down one of the most dangerous tourists in the world known as the Ghost. It’s New Years Eve and Times Square is packed. The ball is almost ready to drop. She has a homemade explosive strapped on her chest and bottles of E boli also that could kill million of people if let out into the atmosphere.Non stop action and suspense on every page. My highest recommendation!!
What a nice surprise
Starts out a little bit underwhelming but quickly enough became a real page-turner for me. Better than most of the books I’ve read in the past few years.
