Brief Synopsis: (Taken from Goodreads) Twenty years have passed since the zombie apocalypse devastated the world. A single man is on a quest of revenge in search of the people responsible for the outbreak of the zombie virus. His quest leads him to a discovery in the western United States that will irrevocably change his goal.
Meanwhile, a new world is revealed that is under the strict control of the same people that were responsible for the plague. Two innocent prisoners of this regime must escape and learn the truth about the world they never knew existed.
Deadlocked 5 is the start of a new, epic series that will change everything you thought you new about the zombie apocalypse. The apocalypse was just the beginning!

My Review:
I give this book a 5 out of 5.
So this is the first book in the second Deadlocked series, and it takes place twenty years after the zombie apocalypse began. Each chapter is told in first person by a different character. The character name is given at the beginning so that you know who you are following. The main characters that we follow are Ben Watanabe, and Cobra Dawn.
We learn early on that Ben is the same Ben that was being experimented on along with Annie. The last we saw him, he was a thirteen year old kid that just murdered four men and was watching Reagan, Laura, and Annie fly off. Now, he's twenty years older and on a hunt to find and assassinate the twelve men who were responsible for the zombie apocalypse - a mission, we learn, that his father set him on.
Cobra Dawn is an entirely different creature. Born and raised for her entire eighteen years in an underground facility, she escapes with a fellow Dawn named Hailey to the surface. There the two girls meet Hero. Yes, the same Hero from Deadlocked 3 and Deadlocked 4.
A few new characters are introduced, including the High Rollers - a group that's been trying to find and destroy the government facilities, like the one Cobra was raised in. A couple more familiar characters show up. As usual, A.R. Wise uses a lot of foreshadowing. Nothing he includes is trivial. Be prepared for a roller coaster of emotions in Deadlocked 5.
You can purchase Deadlocked 5 through Amazon in Kindle format.
