(Lock Down Publishing)

Roll Call is a true prison story with a cast of characters that include Mexican drug cartels, Southern California street gangs and Hell’s Angels all fighting for their piece of the drug culture. In the middle of it all, B.J. is hell bent for destruction until he realizes his destiny in the nick of time.

Add a good detective squeezed out of the loop by an overzealous narcotic detective, a robust prison union trying to call the shots, a handful of drug criminals trying to find their conscience, and you have the perfect recipe for a revolutionary uprising, bound by blood, all leaving the reader wondering, who are the real criminals?

Author Glenn Langohr: The Lord. Who else could bless me with the ability to turn 10 years of prison time for drug charges into modern pulp thrillers about the drug war? Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Author Glenn Langohr, author of Roll Call (Volume 1) →

(Inferno Publishing Company)

A string of brutal murders has bodies piling up in Brooklyn, and Detective Frankie Donovan knows what is going on. Clues left at the crime scenes point to someone from the old neighborhood, and that isn’t good.

Frankie has taken two oaths in his life—the one he took to uphold the law when he became a cop, and the one he took with his two best friends when they were eight-years-old and inseparable.

Those relationships have forced Frankie to make many tough decisions, but now he faces the toughest one of his life; he has five murders to solve and one of those two friends is responsible. If Frankie lets him go, he breaks the oath he took as a cop and risks losing his job. But if he tries to bring him in, he breaks the oath he kept for twenty-five years—and risks losing his life.

In the neighborhood where Frankie Donovan grew up, you never broke an oath.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write Murder Takes Time?

Giacomo Giammatteo: I always told my kids stories about the old neighborhood where I grew up. They kept insisting I write about it, so I weaved the stories into a novel. Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Giacomo Giammatteo, author of Murder Takes Time →
