Lynn Walker watched her dad, John, deteriorate from Miami undercover narcotics agent to drug smuggler, from protective father to monster—a very charming monster. By the time she was in high school, John was in prison for smuggling 12,000 pounds of marijuana. By then, Lynn was filling the emptiness her dad had left in her life with a massive drug and alcohol habit of her own. It was the perfect setup for her to latch onto the only connection that remained with her father once he was released from prison—cocaine. John made a connection with a powerful Colombian drug lord in prison. Within months of being released, while on parole, he began smuggling again. He waltzed back into his kids' lives, dishing out pure, Colombian cocaine to Lynn and launching her brother's coke-dealing career. After a few years of abusing coke together, Lynn lost everything and everyone she ever cared about and was forced to choose between her father and her life. Emotionally raw and heart-breaking, Midnight Calling: A Memoir of a Drug Smuggler’s Daughter is a true story about family bonds, addiction and the price of holding on when it’s time to let go.
