    Shades: The Short Life And Tragic Death Of Erich Schaedler
    Colin Leslie - Hardback - Black & White Publishing
    Long before the deaths of Wales manager Gary Speed and Germany goalkeeper Robert Enke shocked football, the Scottish game was forced to deal with a numbing death of its own over Christmas 1985. International full-back Erich Schaedler, aged 36, was found dead in a Borders beauty spot, with a shotgun by his side and no suicide note or motive for taking his own life. A straightforward suicide? So it seemed at the time, but family and friends are not so sure, and to this day mystery surrounds his tragic death. For the first times, 'Shades' presents an intimate portrait of a man who died in the very prime of life.
