Brotherhood of Blood — Lionel Derrick

GRIDIRON DEATH SQUAD
Sixty violent injuries in one football season...it didn't seem like much. But when Mark Hardin suits up to join the San Diego Sharks at their preseason training camp, he uncovers a deadly pattern of brutality that affects every team in the National Football League. The "Brotherhood of Blood" is an elite group of key players who are being richly rewarded to crush and maim and even to kill--and Las Vegas is pulling the strings.

When all-American rookie running back Cully Ambrose "falls" from a third-floor landing, the Penetrator vows to destroy the Mafia connection. But he has to kill Don Carmine Lavangetti's soldiers before they wipe him out...

The Penetrator, one-man terror of the criminal world, must destroy the rotten cancer that is threatening pro football--before the final gun!
