KICKOFF TIME FOR MURDER
Pro football is new business for Chicago attorney and deal-maker Kate Millholland, but one meeting with the Milwaukee Monarchs convinces her that the team is in deep trouble: bad management, lackluster coaching, and insubordinate players. The move that could save the once-great teamβ a transfer to L.A.βis vehemendy rejected by owner Beau Rendell.
But soon Beau is out of the gameβ murdered, the police say, by his own son and heir.
So whoβs calling the signals in this high-ticket disaster? While the press and the fans go wild, tough-minded Kate goes hunting and collides with an opposition that plays to kill.
βHartzmark is an excellent writer...
"Especially good at catching the vibrations of tension which encircle complex business dealings."
