Author Bio- I'm an obsessive compulsive addict, in recovery, saved by God’s Grace, who researched the U.S War on Drugs so deeply, I met and did business with Mexican Cartels, outlaw bikers and street gangs until the criminal justice system interrupted me. From prison, for 10 years I wrote every morning at 4 AM, before the politics and survival in a variety of California level 4 prisons took over. Upon my release from prison I married my dream girl ballerina Sanette, who plays Annette in the sequel to Roll Call, Upon Release. My vision is to help other prisoners write and publish their art and stories and God is blessing me in this direction daily with my Lock Up Diaries and other works. I use prisoner art for my book covers...

A harrowing, down-and-dirty depiction—sometimes reminiscent of Steven Soderbergh’s Traffic—of America’s war on drugs, by former dealer and California artist Langohr.
Locked up for a decade on drugs charges and immersed in both philosophical tomes and modern pulp thrillers, Langohr penned Roll Call, a light fictionalization of his troubled life. “I went from obsessively pacing my cell and wondering and worrying about how I was actually going to get my attorney to defend me, and how many years this sentence would bring,” writes Langohr in an afterword, “to realizing that if I find a way to write what’s in my head, I can find a way out of this hole I had put myself in!” The book’s hero is Benny “B.J.” Johnson, a kid who grows up in a troubled home. His parents are essentially good, but they fight often. Eventually, his mother escapes, departing in a “small car with over a hundred thousand miles on it and some clothes.” From there, B.J.’s descent is all but inevitable—he hangs out with the wrong crowd and starts dealing. But the author is not content to tell the story from only the protagonist’s perspective. Instead, he toggles the angle like a master director, taking in the stories of American lawmen, Mexican dealers, outlaw bikers, prison guards, pawn-shop dealers and a dude named El Diablo who says things like, “I have a master plan that I am willing to share with you.” Roll Call makes for exciting reading—gunplay, covert operations and backhanded deals abound. The author succeeds by wisely using his experiences to fuel the narrative. A vivid, clamorous account of the war on drugs.
