The Commissioner: A Sports Mystery Stephen Hardy

Commissioner Ben Towne grieves the suicide of his brother, the end of his marriage, and the gnawing recognition that his world of high-level college hockey is as crooked as the war he saw in Kuwait. But on this February weekend, on the eve of another war, he chases a chance for redemption-a chance to take down Ryerson College and its head coach Ted Farnum, the man he believes destroyed his brother. Across a backdrop of vanishing evidence, personal danger, and thrilling hockey, Towne discovers bonds of grief, betrayal, and enlightenment with an unlikely ally in his fight against corruption in college sports.
