The Case of: The Chautauqua Red Ball Murders (Mac Morrison Murder Mystery Book 5)
Two boys are playing tether-ball under a blood moon at a school playground. A
third practices mumblety-peg with his uncle’s silver stiletto.
In two minutes, two of them are dead, a red ball is found under a body, a scrape
of red paint is ignored on the tetherball pole, and the stiletto is missing.

Two boys are playing tether-ball under a blood moon at a school playground. A
third practices mumblety-peg with his uncle’s silver stiletto.
In two minutes, two of them are dead, a red ball is found under a body, a scrape
of red paint is ignored on the tetherball pole, and the stiletto is missing.
The police incompetently misinterpret the evidence and rush to judgment by
blaming an innocent child, who is one of those murdered.
**
Twenty years later, an Artificial Intelligence scan of unsolved murders reveals
six instances where a red ball was found at the crime scene.
Sheriff Lowell Buckman dubs them the Red Ball Murders, and calls in his
crack consultant, Mac Morrison, with his Malamute-Shepherd police dog,
Buddy.
The six cases are all different, with no apparent motives or connecting clues.
**
Mac does what he always does: start at the scene, reconstruct the murder, and
relentlessly question everything and everyone. He works from what he knows to
what he doesn’t know.
But this time, he is not only matching wits with a sophisticated serial killer, he is
bucking the establishment who hired him.
**
One thing is for sure: no killer ever avoids “Morrison Justice!”
