about this book: I started off as a runway from a bad divorce at the age of 13 and got into the drug war for the excitement. The Criminal Justice System eventually interrupted me with Organized Crime charges. I spent 10 years in prison. While in prison I was involved in a riot that send over 100 inmates to solitary confinement. It was there that I started writing Roll Call.

Roll Call is an underground list that includes Hells Angels, Mexican Mafia, Exotic Dancers and a bunch of other colorful characters. While writing this novel I found a spiritual theme of God over evil and found a way to turn what I'd been through into a blessing. I know reach out to other prisoners and help them develop their stories and art work to find a better way of life.

• "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 vivid, clamorous account of the war on drugs."
— Kirkus Discoveries, Nielsen Business Media

• "Whacks you aside the head with the force of a baseball bat. Langohr's incredible description of his fight for survival in prison has 'screenplay' written all over it."
— John South, American Media
