Overview

Born to Be Wild is an amalgam of Sons of Anarchy and Breaking Bad ─ except it's a true story and these outlaw bikers make the Sons look like a bunch of cub scouts. And their drug cartel is closer to Gus Fring's than it is to Walter White's. The story begins with Bobby Nauss having sex with his girlfriend Liz Lande on December 12, 1971, It ends twenty years later. In between is a roller coaster of kidnappings, rapes, murders, a prison break, and a manhunt that took nine years to complete. Liz Lande, twenty-one, was a gorgeous, sexy, blonde college student still living at home with her parents. She was also suffering from a schizophrenic reaction, paranoid type, in which her personality was split between the dependency of childhood and the reality of being an adult. It was love at first sight when she met outlaw biker Bobby Nauss. But he was still suffering from a broken heart and wasn't looking for love and romance. To him she became a sex object, and nothing more. Liz's parents took a cruise to the Caribbean to make up for the honeymoon they never got to take when they got married thirty years earlier. But a week later they returned home to an empty house. Where was Liz? What happened to her? What she still alive? Or was she dead? America's Best Crime Writer Barry Bowe answers all of these questions and a whole lot more. This story was one of the first captures by John Walsh on America's Most Wanted.

Author Information

A little more than 30 years ago Barry was teaching algebra, geometry, and trigonometry at a private school on the island of St. Croix. He was also taking correspondence courses about learning how to write. Prior to that he was a successful sales manager in Philadelphia who always dreamed of becoming an author. Three years later Warner Books published his first book - Born to Be Wild - a classic true-crime saga about outlaw motorcycle gangs. Bastei Verlag translated the book into German, published it under the title Der Wilde. Born to Be Wild became a Main Selection of the Doubleday Book-of-the-Month Club - and it's still selling today. He also wrote more than 100 true murder stories for the True Detective Group of magazines. And he was the first sportswriter to put the name of NBA Hall of Famer Tim Duncan on the sports page. Barry now writes crime fiction.
