I am reviewing a copy of Lockdown through Limitless Publishing and Netgalley:

Leah Watton's  was pulling practical joke in order to impress a crush, unfortunately it spiraled way out of control.  The prank was an online video she had planned on using  to get Jake Colton’s attention.  He is the cute, blond-haired, blue-eyed co-worker she's had a crush on for months.   But she accidentally ends up sending the video to her boss who buys into every gory detail.  After a mass panic follows, Leah comes to the realization that the video was no act.

The government is calling the virus AM13.  The outbreak spreads and citizens are forced to stay indoors while they assess the gravity of the illness. Most people are quarantined in their homes, but Leah, Jake, and Leah's best friend Michelle are some of the unlucky few who are stuck at work when the Lockdown occurs.  It is at work where she is Quarantined that Leah encounters a woman who is infected.  The contaminated woman has devoured one of her coworkers, but that isn’t Leah’s only problem, she doesn’t know if she should stay at work as ordered, or does she ignore Government orders, break free, and try to reunite with her family. She can't do it alone-after all, because Leah has none of the skills needed to survive-but with Michelle and Jake by her side, not even a contagious virus and a sea of the dead can keep her from... Breaking out of the Lockdown...

I give Lockdown four out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
