The Long Shadow Of Hope Andrew Spradling

All is well at Lookout Mountain State University. Its football program is breaking into the Top 10 for the first time in school history, and the trimmings that surround that honor add up to high times for everybody involved. That is, until Compliance Director Dwayne Price discovers that multi-millionaire booster Chap Roberts is paying cash to academic non-qualifiers - mostly blue chippers turned away by major universities - to live on campus while earning their eligibility. Price, as he begins to date enticing colleague Amber Duffy, digs deeper and finds more going on than he would have ever imagined, including extortion. When Roberts, who is Coach Sam Rosemont's best friend, and his henchman Jim Wheatley learn of Price's investigation, things come unraveled at LMSU. What follows is a riveting story you won't want to put down.
