"The plots are inventive, and as someone always trying to guess how a story will unfold, I'm always left guessing until the end."
—Regina Broscius, Public Relations Specialist and Mystery Fan

"Bernie Madoffs better watch their backs..."
—Richard Wall, Book Reviewer

The Philadelphia Eagles have been loved by their fans for many years. Their premier running back, Franklin Johns, was having a great season. However, he took a cheap shot to his knee and was taken to Penn Medicine for observation. Based on the MRI he had, Johns was scheduled for surgery. Meanwhile, most people didn't know that some local gamblers had paid a Giants player to injure Johns. The Giants player started having second thoughts about what he had done, and soon the gamblers had the player killed. Ben and Sharon soon became involved with big-time gambling, money laundering, and murder. And even though neither Ben nor Sharon were big football fans, both wanted to ensure justice was served.

Steve McMillan has been a management professor for over 25 years but recently turned to writing mysteries. Steve worked in public accounting and real estate before entering academia and uses those experiences coupled with his academic life to develop his stories about accounting and murder. While Steve uses his own life experiences in his character and plot development, he wishes he was as "cool" as Ben Stone.
