Obnoxious Lockdown


Book Description

A curious mind and a bad attitude land Carlos Mason in jail for something that he didn't do. Carlos Mason, a sixteen-year-old juvenile, gets arrested by a drug task force team that has him labeled as a drug dealer. Carlos is innocent of all charges against him and is not a drug dealer, but he gets taken to jail anyway for his obnoxious behavior toward the officers. Once Carlos goes to court to explain his innocence, he goes verbally wild on the judge for not taking his side of the situation, which quickly turns an overnight stay behind bars into a two-year incarceration, where he comes face-to-face with some of the most aggressive and dangerous inmates in the country. But with Carlos being an aggressive person as well and with very little fear in his heart, he refuses to be intimidated by the inmates' ferocious approach toward him. Carlos must quickly learn how to survive among the inmates if he wants any chance of getting back to the outside world alive. While in lockdown, Carlos becomes a master of reverse psychology, but before he can use it, he must learn to respect the people around him that have very different mind-sets and different mentalities. The story takes an unexpected turn toward a very shocking ending.
