THE SPORTS THRILLER YOU NEVER SAW COMING
What happens when passion for a sport becomes a deadly obsession?
Three things Gerry Vanelli thought he knew about pickleball:
It's a sport for decent people.The worst enemies are the net and the perforated ball.Fair play always comes first.He was wrong on all three counts.
He and his Heavy Dinkers team had one dream: to win the prestigious Memorial Ferruccio Corona pickleball tournament again. They never imagined it would turn into their worst nightmare.
Because in pickleball, as in life, some lines should never be crossed.
When equipment vendor Michele gets mowed down by a hit-and-run driver, private investigator Gerry Vanelli knows it's no accident. His instincts prove right when his teammates start falling victim to a series of "mishaps". Someone wants the Heavy Dinkers out of the game permanently.
