It's One. . .Two. . .Three Strikes You're DeadMickey Rawlings will do whatever it takes to help his New York Giants get past the Brooklyn Dodgers and into the World Series. If that means playing a bit part in a movie starring screen goddess Florence Hampton, he's game. What's not in the lineup is Florence washing up on a beach bloated and dead following a glitzy night of champagne and paparazzi. Since Rawlings has a perfect batting average when it comes to solving murders, he can't just walk away from the crime--especially when the killer has an agenda that could change more than a few lives forever--and puts the Series into perspective for Rawlings. While the boys of summer heat up for the final playoff stretch, every pitch, every swing heightens the tension on a mystery that might be too tough for Rawlings to deliver in the clutch this time. Equal parts baseball and mystery are the perfect proportion. --Robert Parker Praise for the Mickey Rawlings Baseball MysteriesFull of life. --The New York Times Book Review on Hanging CurveA perfect book for the rain delay. . .a winner! --USA Today on Murder at Fenway ParkDelightful. . .mixing suspense, period detail that will leave readers eager for subsequent innings. --Publishers Weekly on Murder at Fenway Park
