Body Check
Pbk published October 2005 by Napoleon Publishing at £9.99
ISBN: 1894917227
Somebody wants Behn McAvoy dead. He's sure of this because he has just had to drown an assailant in his fishing hole. But who would want to kill an ageing hockey player from a minor league team? Perhaps it is an ex-con in need of cash to fund a new scam or a self-adoring team-mate who can parlay Behn's demise into an NHL career. Then there's his ex-wife, part of a bourbon-blurred NHL stint that Behn has spent a decade trying to forget. Finding out who is calling the shots would be easier if only the shots would stop coming.
