    About this ebook

    From R. Barri Flowers, award winning criminologist and internationally bestselling author of The Sex Slave Murders 1 and 2, comes a gripping new true crime short, Murder of a Star Quarterback: The Tragic Tale of Steve McNair & Sahel Kazemi.

    In this riveting tale of a sports legend, infidelity, jealousy, money, and desperation, former NFL star quarterback Steve McNair and his attractive young lover Sahel Kazemi embark on a dangerous affair in Nashville that leaves both dead.
