Hoosier Hoops and Hijinks is a collection of sixteen stories written by some of today's best emerging mystery writers. Each short mystery is written by a member of the Speed City Indiana Chapter of Sisters in Crime, and each is set around Indiana basketball and separated by an interesting non-fiction piece about Hoosier hoops.

It's only a game, you say? Don't you believe it. After that final buzzer, these stories reveal, it may be the games are only beginning. When it comes to Hoosier Hijinks, not everyone plays by the rules. And thats what makes it irresistible. -- From the Introduction by Hank Phillippi Ryan
