Inside the Labyrinth: A Bo Landry Thriller (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781496119421)

In "Never Too Late: A Prosecutor's Story of Justice in the Medgar Evers Murder Case" (Scribner 2001), Bobby DeLaughter-the assistant district attorney portrayed by Alec Baldwin in Rob Reiner's "Ghosts of Mississippi"-took readers through his fascinating, real-life journey in bringing to justice the assassin of civil rights pioneer and hero Medgar Evers decades after the murder. Among readers' reviews of "Never Too Late": "[A] great read, so compelling I could not put it down.... Mr. DeLaughter is widely described as very private, but in his writing he and his experience are so accessible the reader feels as if s/he is there every step of the way.... [A]n intelligent and inspiring work that should not be missed." Molly B. Nolan "[A]n excellent and poignant book." Schmerguls "Well written and engaging!" BookEnthusiast "DeLaughter, a fluid and powerful writer, takes us deep into the heart of evil...." Barry Bradford "Vivid words paint a clear picture of...irrational hate...." C.W. Emblom Inside the Labyrinth is Bobby DeLaughter's debut novel, an erotic thriller in which he exerts that same vividness to paint a clear portrait of a sexual predator serial killer, taking the reader deep into the mind and soul of evil, lust and power. It is a story of good and evil, love and heartache, and not without the occasional well-placed relief of humor. DeLaughter so skillfully draws readers into his characters' circumstances, personalities, and aspirations, it is impossible not to become invested in their lives. The victims are not mere statistics or literary props, and when they die it becomes our loss and resulting void. The journey DeLaughter now takes us on is not merely one from his roots of Jackson, Mississippi to his new home along the narrow streets and alleys of the famous French Quarter of New Orleans, but into a world of darkness that somehow flourishes in the plain sight of light, for malevolence is concealed behind many deceptive visages. Inside life's many labyrinths one never knows what lurks around the next twisted turn.
