When it comes to spinning a murder mystery that challenges a reader's imagination and thought processes, no one does it better than C.C. Risenhoover, who created the Matt McCall and Jude Christian characters in earlier novels. In this, his 43rd published book, he introduces Alamo Dillon Crockett, a former NCIS agent and detective turned reluctant police chief, who is called on to solve the murders of a high school quarterback, three pro quarterbacks, a gun store owner, a rattlesnake rancher and a drug dealer. If you like a bizarre and twisted tale, THE QUARTERBACK MURDERS, will keep you guessing until the last chapter. In this intriguing tale, Police Chief Crockett is joined by a host of memorable characters, but Doctor Katherine (Kat) Reagan, the county coroner stands out as both Dillon's confidant and love interest. Before going into medicine, Kat was a star softball pitcher for Baylor University, her undergraduate alma mater. And Dillon quarterbacked the University of Oklahoma, his alma mater. College football injuries kept Dillon from going pro, but not from joining the Marine Corps, with whom he served with distinction during combat in the Middle East. There is comedic relief in the novel, primarily in conversations between the characters, but there is nothing funny about the unique way in which six of the seven murders were committed. Other notable characters include Jesse Crapman, a con man televangelist who owns two pro sports franchises; his wife, Glorybe, who is general manager of both franchises; Trevor Howard, the town's mayor; detectives Chester Goodnight, Luis Perez and Iron Man Shelton; and Native Americans Angry Wolf and Red Bird. The colorful characters who contribute to this book are too numerous to mention. Readers often refer to books that are page turners. This is one of them.
