Death by Polo

About the Book

Polo on the Pacific Coast of Mexico is high-speed fun. Jack and Penny Battle leave San Miguel to join the players and sponsors at San Pancho Resort. They find that murder has distracted the powerful Gustios family from its favorite sport. A long-missing and murderous Gustios brother must be nearby, but which claimant is he, and is he more dangerous than ever?

Glamorous places and nasty people. A chase to Budapest, Jack locked in an Aztec vault, and an alpha dog are exciting. A bloody ending in a spooky house in Mexico City leaves us wondering which character is the real villain.

About the Author

Distinguished wit and bon vivant, novelist Richard Crissman has a number of books available from iUniverse, and several in preparation. He is also preparing a book called How to Turn Your Idea into a Novel.

His offbeat fiction is about money and what it does to people: the power, the self-indulgence and the glamour! He shares the secrets of making, keeping and managing vast fortunes. His characters are eccentric, foolish, and very human: nuts and nuggets. His plots are unexpected and as American as PG Wodehouse?s plots were top-drawer British, and as exciting as those of Dick Francis.

Crissman and his beautiful wife moved to San Miguel de Allende from Santa Barbara, California. In either place, they are very much part of the milieu of which he writes.
