Recent release “From Dollars to Senses Down in New Orleans,” from Page Publishing author Jose L. Matamoros, is a riveting novel that follows Bentley “Cuttie” Johnson, the biggest kingpin in Louisiana, who finds his life of crime upended after being set up by his cousin. With nowhere else to turn while in prison, Cuttie begins to slowly discover Christ and rededicate his life to a higher purpose.
South Milwaukee, WI, October 10, 2023 --(PR.com)-- Jose L. Matamoros, who fled from Cuba in 1980 to the United States with nothing but the clothes on his back, has completed his new book, “From Dollars to Senses Down in New Orleans”: a gripping story of a criminal kingpin whose life takes a drastic turn after he’s betrayed and finds himself with only one path left.
After fleeing Cuba while Fidel Castro was in power, author Jose L. Matamoros had no money, no shelter, and no one to help him. At this point in his life, he turned to the one thing he had seen going on everywhere he looked—the drug game. Jose kept up this lifestyle for many years till eventually, like most in this life, the law caught up with him. While serving his federal charges, he learned there was more to life than the drug game. He learned about the true meaning of family, friendships, and serving God during his twenty-year sentence.
“The journey of Cuttie started early back in New Orleans, when he witnessed countless murders, drug deals, lots of money laundering, and corrupt police and politicians,” writes Matamoros. “Cuttie never expected the things that life threw at him while he was trying to get revenge on the kingpin of New Orleans but found bullets flying toward his life.
“After the revenge was best served cold, Cuttie started to become the person he didn’t want to become. He found himself caught up in the corrupt lifestyle of drugs, extortion, sex, money, and nonstop violence. He knew what was going to happen to him, and he knew he needed change, but life threw the last curveball his way.”
Published by Page Publishing, Jose L. Matamoros’s enthralling tale is partly inspired by the author’s own life, and his struggles as he spiraled down a path of crime until discovering God’s divine guidance while atoning for his transgressions in prison. Thought-provoking and full of suspense, Matamoros weaves an unforgettable thrill ride that is certain to leave readers spellbound as they follow Cuttie’s downward journey and final chance at salvation.
