Dead Ball is out in the wild in ebook format at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and Smashwords. The last is a distributor to Apple, so it may be a while yet before it appears there.
A trade paperback version is forthcoming and I will announce it here on the blog.
Here is the blurb:
Summer was for fun...
A former star basketball player, Sheriff Karen Okerlund Mehaffey just wants to have fun watching the local girls' summer team play against an elite Dakota team that sports the country’s top uncommitted college recruit. True, life-changing scholarship offers are on the line, but no one expected that murder would be done.
To make things even stickier, the talented and unfairly maligned daughter of Karen's boyfriend is vying for one of those scholarships, and this may be her last chance to catch the eye of scouts.
Someone is playing for keeps, but who? From entitled players and helicopter parents to classless coaches and dubious sponsors, Karen and her detective-uncle, Marek Okerlund, must play a deadly game of justice to find a killer.
