Lynn Walker

Lynn was the happy-go-lucky daughter of a Miami undercover narcotics agent. When she was eight, her dad snuck out of their house in the dark of night without so much as a glance back. She never understood what happened to him until she was in high school, and he was in prison for smuggling 12,000 pounds of marijuana. By then, Lynn was filling the emptiness he had left in her life with a massive drug and alcohol habit of her own. It was the perfect set-up for her to latch onto the only connection to her dad that remained once he was paroled from prison--cocaine.After a few years of abusing coke together, Lynn lost everything and everyone she cared about and was forced to choose between her life and her father. Only Lynn had no idea how she could walk away from her dad this time. Or if she would ever find her way back to him.Midnight Calling: A Memoir of a Drug Smuggler's Daughter is a compelling, true story that reads like fiction: a bewildering childhood, Lynn's descent into her dad's drug smuggling world--full of endless, pure Colombian cocaine but never the love she craved--her attempts to escape the grip of drugs and alcohol, and her long journey to discover that some of her greatest strengths came from surviving the charm and the hell of her father.Astonishing, emotionally raw and, at times, brutal, Midnight Calling is a story about family bonds and the price of clinging to them, severing them and trying to repair them.
