It is the realistic and interesting situation the book deals with. At the beginning, Alex French is having a good time with his friends when one of them, Karen, receives a strange phone call. Her former husband is calling her on the phone - which is unusual, since he never calls her and neither does he meet their daughter, Alice. Sam calls her for a reason, he is in trouble, he is in jail for murdering his girlfriend. He knows about Karen's friendship with the star detective, Alex French, and he begs her to get help from French. He avers that he never killed his girlfriend, a girl named Melissa Crane. Alex French, ever the understanding friend, agrees to help them. He meets Sam Moss who is locked up in the B-Block of Jefferson County Jail. From the history of the couple, we learn that Sam Moss is not quite a good catch, despite his good looks and friendly manners. He met Karen in a club in Louisville, Kentucky, many years ago. At the beginning, he was sweet and kind, but his charm was only superficial. He cheated on Karen in the first year of their marriage. Together Karen and Sam had a daughter, Alice, but he had other kids with other women and did not care about any of them. In the end, he managed to steal $1500 from Karen's bank account, this was when she ended their marriage and she has not seen him since. Now Sam is back, telling Detective French that he is not guilty. Things do not look up for Sam. Aside from his questionable character, there is heaps of evidence against him. His relationship with Melissa was stormy, they often quarreled, at weekends, she would leave, never telling where. The night when Melissa died, they had an ugly scene. Melissa, who had a degree in accounting, at last got a glorious job offer, so she, thrilled, wanted to move to another town. Deep down, Sam knew it would be the end of their relationship, he begged her not to go, but she persisted. Things got out of hand and escalated. When Sam wanted to walk out on her and leave their apartment, she blocked his way, so he hit her mouth, then left after sometime ten p.m. When he returned, he had several drinks and passed out. When he woke up, his shirt was blood-stained and he was arrested for murdering Melissa. It seems obvious that he has killed her. Sam is very honest with Alex French, who has a premonition that despite all the evidence, there is more to this tragic story . . . Dangerous Game by B.S. Savage can be a hit with everyone who enjoys the best thriller novels, good storytelling, and crime novel series with likeable characters.
