Lockdown

I have read Lockdown this year and it has a very interesting plot. Is starts with the main character Alex breaking in to a house to take some things while the owners are away. The police show up to the house and arrest him. When he was in court, it wasn't for stealing anything like someone his age would, but for being framed for killing his best friend. The people who set him up were actually from Furnace and they framed him because they needed more kid's to experiment in their secret mutation lab within the jail. Alex tries to break out of the jail with only one exit. And fails. While all of his inmates lost all hope, Alex found a way out. Everyday the children in furnace have to mine in the tunnels. Tunnel #2 has recently broken down so our character Alex snoops around and finds a way out... a hidden underground river. As soon as Alex jumps into the river with his friends the book ends.
