Moments into the second half the whistle blows, but not for a goal or a penalty.  One of the Trojans has collapsed on the pitch.  By the end of the day, he is dead.   Enter Inspector Anthony Slade into the world of professional football to investigate a case of deadly foul play on and off the pitch.”
