Screenwriter, TV producer, and New York Times bestselling author Attica Locke chats with Zibby about GUIDE ME HOME, the stunning culmination of the award-winning Highway 59 trilogy, where Detective Darren comes out of retirement to investigate the case of a missing black college student from an all-white sorority. Attica reflects on her protagonist, Darren Matthews, a conflicted Black Texas Ranger, and his complicated relationship with his mother. She also talks about how her novels explore crime stories set in small East Texas towns and her fascination with ordinary people making bad decisions. Finally, she delves into how she balances novel writing with her work in television, the challenges of screenwriting, and how working on the Netflix series From Scratch changed her life.
