About the books:
In Mississippi Blue 42, former quarterback turned author Eli Cranor throws a glorious game winner in this series debut starring a rookie FBI agent who finds herself caught in the tangled web of a college football empire—and the bloody greed that fuels it.
The quarterback is the American equivalent of royalty: long glamorized, mythologized, and worshipped. As an inside look into a uniquely American job and a uniquely American obsession with football, American Kings: A Biography of the Quarterback is a must-read for sports fans and anyone who wants to understand what the price of ambition tells us about the quest for achievement and status.
