Following the incident in Canada, Hutchinson has gone back to writing for his local newspaper. And he's obsessed with bringing down Brendan Page, father of the killer in Deadfall and owner of the best Blackwater-esque agency.
Page uses virtual reality to train his soldiers to view blood as blue and people, whether adult, children, male or female as a generic person who is the enemy. Basically, he's using video gamers ability to play first person shooter games well and bringing it into the real world.
After a face-to-face meeting with Hutchinson, Page decides to send him a message to leave him alone. This message gets scrambled and Hutchinson's son is kidnapped and people die. This sends Hutchinson into a race to find his son and exact revenge on Page.
This book reads fast because of the short chapters. The characters are fleshed out so it's more than a summer easy action read. However I was disappointed in the number of times the characters used a cuss word. I thought this was a book published by a Christian company.
Outside of that one minor flaw, Deadlock is almost as good as Deadfall.
