Welcome to Run & Shoot! A murder mystery set in the sex-cash-and-violence world of college football 2009, it’s a novel that will spool out in real time over the next four months, chapter by chapter. (Charles Dickens, author of A Christmas Carol, used to do this with his books, but he didn’t feature nearly as many bone-snapping hits and strip clubs as we will here.)

Every Monday, we’ll bring you the latest chapter in the bizarre story of the 2009 Deep South University Bootleggers. You can read it on the website or your phone, download a PDF for dead-tree printout, tap the RSS feed by clicking the orange icon above, or get podcasts of each chapter delivered fresh every week. Subscribe to the R&S mailing list by clicking right here, and never miss a chapter.

As we go, I’d love to get your feedback on R&S — comments, reviews, suggestions, guesses at the murderer(s?) identity. Comment beneath each chapter, and drop me a line at jay@runandshootbook.com.

Finally, thanks so much for reading. Hope you’ll enjoy R&S at least as much as your own college’s season. Game on!
