Kian Wake was a young aspiring musician in New York City, but he was always under his older brother's shadow. Until one day, he made his own headline, though perhaps not for the best reason. When celebrating his 18th birthday party, one of his childhood friends from his hometown slum of a neighborhood brought several pounds of illicit drugs such as cocaine and heroin in hopes of making a reasonable profit off Kian's high profile friends. Kian was very unaware of this and when one of his neighbors called the police on a noise complaint, police noted one of the party goers passed out and having a seizure from a heroin overdose. Upon discovery of the drugs in his apartment, Kian was arrested. Since he wouldn't tell them who supplied the drugs he was sentenced to two years on Riker's Island, one of America's worst prisons. LOCKUP is the story of survival and the many things Kian underwent while inside. Gangs, fights, and riots. LOCKUP provides a very real look at what the life of a prisoner is like.

Lucas Wesley was his hometown basketball star and he grew up well. According to his home town news paper, The Compton Tribune he was "going places." Except for Lucas never did. He got accepted and attends Ohio State. He spends his time now, wasting his basketball talent on girls, drugs and alcohol. The ghost of his past haunts him and he has never been the same after the mistakes he's made. Kate-Anna was a simple girl and she worked very hard to complete her community college early. She wanted to make a life for herself, one that she never had growing up. She has a rough past but it doesn't define her determination or her life. Despite pressing forward, she's always been missing a piece. As fate takes a desperate turn, it could change their lives forever. *Note: there is a lot of rough language, some alcohol/drug use. I do NOT however condone drugs in an form nor have I tried them. I just have a story in my head that needs to get out.
