Think Harlan Coben meets Bull Durham. Johnny Adcock is an aging Major League pitcher with the perfect retirement plan—he moonlights as a private investigator. Major League Baseball, as it turns out, is a prime source of employment for a philosophically inclined, discreet detective who has both the brains and the brawn to handle unique problems. Those infamous ballplayer salaries attract gangsters, hustlers, and predators of every persuasion who prey on the outsized egos of the average superstar athlete. When a player, coach, agent, or wife has a problem they can't make public, they call Johnny Adcock. On the team bus after a game, teammate Frankie Herrera confides to Adcock that he has a "problem with his wife." What sounds like the standard story of a pro athlete's marriage gone sour quickly turns into the most dangerous case of Johnny's second career . . . and pulls him into a deadly ring of murder, porn, Mexican cartels, and deep pro-ball intrigue. T.T. Monday takes readers inside a rich and highly entertaining world where crime and baseball intersect and delivers one of the most original thrillers in years.
