FADE IN:

In the late 1990's the public paid through taxes over $58 million to build the Wapato Jail. But as the economy slowed taxpayers got tired of footing the bill for cost over-runs, and after the local government decided to spend the money on other things, the jail was completed but never opened. It sat empty for the last two years before Silverheart Technologies, a publicly traded owned company, purchased the building. Richard Glover, the President of Silverheart, said "I believe by bailing out the taxpayers and by running this facility as a business we can get criminals off the street and rehabilitate them for a safe return to the community."

And so begins "LOCKDOWN"

Today should be the best day in the life of Jimmy Chambers, he and his wife are expecting their first child at any moment, he is the head guard of a new jail and everything seems right in his world. But "should be" does not mean will be. There was no way to prepare for a murder and an escape. With the board of directors and President of the company which owns the jail there for a visit, Jimmy must lockdown the jail, control the situation and solve the mystery in less than 24 hours. As Jimmy tries to reconcile his personal demons he must deal with the challenges of the present. Jimmy learns that the choices he made in the past effect the choices he makes today. We follow Jimmy along his journey to come to terms with those choices in what amounts to a story of revenge, redemption, and hope.
