He's getting some part-time work with his friend McCracken's detective agency. He's picking up beer money by freelancing for a local news website. And he's looking after his semi-retired mobster-friend's bookmaking business. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut Mulligan still manages to find trouble. He's feuding with a cat that keeps leaving its kills on his porch. He's obsessed with a baffling jewelry heist. And he's enraged that someone in town is torturing animals. All this keeps distracting him from a big case that needs his full attention. The New England Patriots, shaken by a series of murder charges against a star player, have hired Mulligan and McCracken to investigate the background of a college athlete they're thinking of drafting. At first, the job seems routine, but as soon as they begin asking questions, they get push-back. The player, it seems, has something to hide--and someone is willing to kill to make sure it remains secret.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tom Doherty Associates","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47129818726640,"sku":"9781466841444","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781466841444_p0.jpg?v=1769891280","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781466841444","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
