    [synopsis] => Trivia-on-Book: Lock In by John Scalzi. In the near future of the human race, there is a new virus that takes the world by storm. Majority of the victims show mere symptoms of fever and headaches. Some suffer from acute meningitis which turns into a serious medical crisis. But 1% of the total number of affected individuals is in a 'locked-in' situation, The Haden's Syndrome — they are aware and awake, but they cannot move or respond to physical stimulus. So technology comes to the rescue and formulates a way of communication among the 'locked-in' patients. One such technology helps victims communicate with the world in a virtual reality. Another breakthrough comes with the discovery of rare humans who can let others into their brains and be controlled by those 'riding' their minds. With the advent of this discovery, greed for power, murderous plots, political strategies and other sinister plans begin to hatch and safety of the human race is compromised till Chris Shane, a victim of this Haden's Syndrome and an FBI agent comes to the rescue.
