Jerica Davidson, the First Miss, enrolls at her parents' alma mater. Her professor advisor is Joan, daughter of Aggie Morissey, good friend of the President, Jerica's dad. Eager to live a normal life away from the spotlight and the secret service, Jerica falls in with a rough crowd, led by her roommate, Callie, a devious opportunist. Callie introduces Jerica, the girl who longs to win beaty contests, to Butch, a tough guy from Milwaukee. Aggie tries to take Jerica under her wing, but the President's daughter resists, eluding both Aggie and Joan. Now Butch is one step closer to winning Jerica's heart, body, and soul, through her commitment to him, to Callie, and to their cause. Involving Jerica in his terrorist activities would be cool. He convinces Jerica that their cause is "Saving the Trees". When Jerica goes missing just when a building on campus blows up, Butch leaks the news that the First Miss is a member of the eco-terrorist gang responsible for the mayhem. And the press goes wild! Aggie Morissey starts out worrying about President Dominic Davidson's life, but she could be mistaken: right family, wrong person.

Somebody feels threatened by Aggie's commitment to researching and writing the family history. Leaving threatening phone calls, emails, and faxes, the bad guy doesn't give up. Hiring a killer, a neophyte bad guy, this stalker trails Aggie and her double cousin to France, and on a river cruise, and then on a cross-country drive. The problem-what sort of scandal occured in the recent or distant past to send a family member on such a deadly quest? What could Aggie possibly uncover that's so awful as to require murder most foul? Aggie's research takes her and Lisa back to the past on a historical adventure, where we see the settling of the west, particularly Wyoming, through the eyes of the cousins' great-great-grandmothers. Meanwhile, in this day and age, one wonders what in the world possessed another cousin to marry a real loser, a teller turned bank VP after marrying the secretary of state. Also, Aggie's generation of cousins are bent on playing cupid, except they're in conflict about whom and why. Should they push Senator Steve Norman at Cousin Nasty, or devise romantic scenarios for Steve with Nicole, Aggie's granddaughter? These two sub-plots get in the way of Aggie's quest, one of which contributes to her search and her desperate efforts to save her own life, and the other sub-plot of which must inevitably foil the primary plot. (Aggie's Double Dollies, more than any other of the Aggie Morissey mysteries, helps to unravel the family saga)

The Oklahoma Football Encyclopedia is an historical description of every University of Oklahoma football game from the beginning in 1895 through today. Learn how the team got its start and how Coach Bennie Owen laid the foundation for the Sooners to become one of the most respected teams on the college football scene. Bud Wilkinson, Barry Switzer, and Bob Stoops later directed the Sooners to college football’s elite prize. Wilkinson was a great teacher of the Split-T formation, which guided the Sooners to three national championships, 72 consecutive conference games without a loss, and a major college winning streak. Switzer, a master recruiter, implemented the Wishbone formation, which brought another three national titles and 12 conference crowns to Norman. After the Sooner football program had dropped to mediocrity status, Stoops turned the program around and won the national championship in his second year at the helm. This book, now in its second edition, provides insight into Sooner Magic. Many OU football teams appeared to have a supernatural force carry them to victory when victory was not assured. Was it sleight of hand? Smoke and mirrors? No, just pure talent and inspiration helped push the Sooners to the overwhelming tradition the teams have displayed on the gridiron.

Agatha DeLacey’s family isn’t rich or titled, so studying nursing at Ingold’s East End hospital in London is a rare opportunity for her. Despite the school’s focus on the innovative Bio-Mechanical program, Aggie cares more about the desperately poor human patients who flood the hospital, even if that means providing unauthorized treatment after-hours…and trusting a charming, endlessly resourceful thief. But the Artful Dodger is barely a step ahead of his underworld rivals, the menacing Bill Sykes and mercurial Oliver Twist, and Aggie’s association with him soon leads her into danger. When a brutal attack leaves her blind, she and the Dodger find themselves at the mercy of an experimental Bio-Mech surgery. Though the procedure restores Aggie’s sight, her new eyes come at an unnerving cost, and the changes in Dodger are even more alarming—instead of seeing Aggie as the girl he fancies, he now views her as a potential threat. As war between England and Germany brews on the horizon and a sinister medical conspiracy threatens to shatter the uneasy peace in Europe, Aggie and the Dodger must find a way to work together so they can protect their friends and expose the truth…even if it means risking their own survival.
