Happy November, Waitlisters!

John Grisham brings us back to the Southern court room with his latest legal thriller, The Boys from Biloxi! Life itself hangs in the balance in this sweeping saga rich with history and a large cast of unforgettable characters. With 90 patrons on the edge of their seats in our queue, I’m here to give you a few options to keep you busy while you wait to solve the case of, The Boys from Biloxi!

For most of the last hundred years, Biloxi was known for its beaches, resorts, and seafood industry. But it had a darker side. It was also notorious for corruption and vice, everything from gambling, prostitution, bootleg liquor, and drugs to contract killings. The vice was controlled by small cabal of mobsters, many of them rumored to be members of the Dixie Mafia.

Keith Rudy and Hugh Malco grew up in Biloxi in the sixties and were childhood friends, as well as Little League all-stars. But as teenagers, their lives took them in different directions. Keith’s father became a legendary prosecutor, determined to “clean up the Coast.” Hugh’s father became the “Boss” of Biloxi’s criminal underground. Keith went to law school and followed in his father’s footsteps. Hugh preferred the nightlife and worked in his father’s clubs. The two families were headed for a showdown, one that would happen in a courtroom.
