Books like No man's land by G. M. Ford
Meza Azul, Arizona’s state‑owned, high‑tech penitentiary, is seized by a released inmate who frees the remaining prisoners and holds more than a hundred guards hostage, demanding the writer Frank Corso’s presence.

The escaped inmate, Timothy Driver, co‑ops with a hired killer named Cutter Kehoe to escape into the open road. They pursue Corso, who is chased by a persistent TV journalist, while armed government troops storm the prison.
