When Gritli Moser, a little Swiss girl, is slashed to death in the woods near her native village, all the clues point to Gunten, a peddler with an unsavory reputation.

...like others all over Texas, are graduates of well-organized "Pee Wee" (fifth and sixth grade) football leagues. Having already learned to take their lumps, they get from Chuck a generous dollop of the kind of coaching they will get even more intensively after they earn college athletic scholarships. Moser's assistant coaches, managers and quarterbacks get a mimeographed sheet of instructions before each practice session. There are movies of every game to be studied.
