About the Book

The Good Seats is a primer on how an NFL official might be bribed. Tommy Palmer, an ex-cop and self-employed security  man in Waikiki, flies to mid-winter Philadelphia to help his childhood pal, Jitterbug, accused of murder. The victim was a bag man for a Philly crime family and was holding 150K in cash. The bad guys want the money back from Jitterbug and the police want him in jail. Amid a rich portrait of working class Philadelphia and the excitement of big time football, Tommy Palmer puts his life on the line for his friend. That's the kind of guy Tommy is.
