Synopsis

Anyone who believes the only thing to fear is fear itself, hasn’t met East Tennessee Sheriff Don Whitman. In 1992, in the autumn of his career, his plans for quietly retiring are dashed when he’s faced with a double homicide and the disappearance of a teenage girl. At a local bar, searching for information, the sheriff meets a beautiful biracial woman who says she’s looking for her father, a tough guy who has been missing for thirty years. Additional information leads the sheriff and the woman into the underbelly of Chicago and a violent encounter with one of the Mob’s prominent crime families; a family with ties to a now-deceased gangster who was a prime suspect in the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. Amidst the excitement of high school football and the adrenaline rush of capturing a killer and a kidnapper, the sheriff finds himself falling in love, knowing well that a relationship between a white man and a woman of color will be one more of the Battles of Autumn.

Battles of Autumn is the second story in a five-part collection of novels known as - The Autumn Series - written by Richard W. Nave.
